Salmon Cakes

This is a family recipe, I got it from my Mom, who got it from her Mom, who we believe got it from her Mom. It's quite easy, but very tasty.
Salmon Cakes
  • 1 Can Salmon
  • 1 Egg
  • 6-10 Soda Crackers (smashed)
  • 1-2 Celery Stalks (chopped finely)
  • Garlic Powder
  • Onion Powder
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 1/2 Lemon
Mix all ingredients together. Form into 6-7 small patties. Spray non-stick spray on skillet at med-high heat. Brown on each side (usually about 4 minutes per side). Drizzle with lemon juice. I was missing some ingredients tonight and did not want to go out in the snow storm, so I left out the celery, and used bread crumbs and potato flakes instead of soda cracker. It was a bit drier then normal, but worked well with lemon juice or a bit of your favorite fish sauce. I used the white sauce I had with fish tacos.

Simple Cole Slaw
  • 1/4 Head Cabbage (Shredded)
  • 1/2 C Onion (Finely Chopped)
  • Italian Dressing
Mix all together. Allow to rest in refridgerator (at least 20 minutes) for best flavor.

I also had a lot of potatoes, and wanted to try something different. I used Chef Anne Burrell (from the Food Networks) Pommes Chef Anne Recipe, try it out here.
