Salmon Patties, photographed

I’m pretty sure I’m not going to become a food blogger, but it sure is nice to be able to take decent pictures of food!

I’ve posted my “recipe” for salmon patties before, but I’ll do it again here, with a few pictures to go with it.

I didn’t take as many pictures as I would have liked because the people were hungry, and it takes a lot longer to make a dish when you photograph it!

We used to make this with just one can of salmon.  sigh.  That is no longer enough food.  :)

2 cans of salmon, drained

1 sleeve of Ritz (or storebrand) crackers, crushed into crumbs

Mix those up with four beaten eggs until you get a nice mush.

Then form them into equal sized patties, however big you’d like.

The last couple of times I’ve made these I have used my large cookie scoop to portion out the mix, then used my hands to form each scoop into a patty.

They’d probably cook okay on a nonstick surface without any kind of fat, but I like that crunchy brown outside.  I used olive oil, but you can really use anything.

Fry them until they’re brown, flip, and repeat.

I told myself I was going to count them, but I forgot.  Here’s how many it made though.  :)

I serve them with ketchup for dipping.

We ended up with enough leftover to have for lunch the next day.  Yay!
