4th Step
Add mayonnaise and an egg that has been whisked to the salmon mixture. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed. And progressively add breadcrumbs to the mixture until it reaches a consistency that permits easy patty formation. Form the mixture into patties approximately 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
5th Step
Add additional breadcrumbs to the serving. Coat each salmon patty with breadcrumbs on both sides, using gentle pressure. This phase gives the patties a delectable texture when fried.
6th Step
Over medium heat, heat enough vegetable oil to submerge the patties in a deep skillet or sauté pan. Once the oil has reached a temperature of approximately 175°C (350°F), gingerly position the patties into the oil.
7th Step
Fry the patties for approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crusty. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; if necessary, sauté in batches. Using a slotted spatula, transfer the fried salmon patties to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
8th Step
Serve these Southern-style salmon patties while they’re still hot. They can be served with coleslaw, tartar sauce, or your preferred dipping condiment. For added flavor, garnish with a sprig of fresh parsley or a lemon wedge
