Salmon Burger
This recipe has been in my family for many years. I changed the bland original and tweaked it a bit. Added the grated onion, lemon juice, and dill seed. Then fry in butter.
1 (14¾ oz) can salmon
⅓ cup breadcrumbs
2 green onions, chopped
¼ cup celery, chopped
¼ cup mayonnaise
1 egg, beaten
4 Tbsp. butter, for frying
Garnish:
lemon juice, freshly squeezed
fresh dill
Drain salmon. Remove bones and skin.
In a large bowl combine salmon, bread crumbs, onion, celery, mayonnaise, and beaten egg. Mix.
Shape into 4 even-sized patties. Two for dinner. And two the next day for a salmon burger. Condiments of your choice.
In a large sauté pan, melt butter on low. Add salmon patties.
Cook on medium until golden brown on each side and cooked through.
Sprinkle a little dill seed and a splash of lemon juice just before serving.
