I modified a recipe for salmon patties from 'The Ultimate Gullah Cookbook'.
There was nothing wrong with the original recipe but I like to fiddle with
recipes :)  The results were awesome and definitely a keeper.

Salmon Patties

1 (16 oz) can pink salmon, drained and small round bones removed
1/2 small yellow onion, minced
1/2 small green bell pepper, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 egg (lightly beaten)
dash cayenne (ground red) pepper
1 tsp. each salt & black pepper
1 Tbs. prepared mayonnaise (if I'd had sour cream I'd have used it instead)
2-3 Tbs. flour
2-3 Tbs. vegetable oil (I used Canola)

In a large skillet, saute the onion, bell pepper and garlic in oil until
soft.  Strain and set aside, reserving the oil.

Drain water from salmon; pick out the small round bones.  (The bones really
don't matter as they are very soft and crush easily; they won't hurt you.)
Transfer the salmon to a mixing bowl.  Break up the salmon with a fork until
it flakes.  Add salt, pepper, cayenne and the beaten egg to the salmon.
Stir in the sauteed onion, pepper and garlic.  Mix well.  Blend in the mayo
or sour cream.  Form into 6-8 patties.  Dust lightly with flour on each
side.

Heat the oil over medium high-heat (add more as needed for pan-frying).
Brown the salmon patties about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.




I like to add a dab of prepared mustard and a dollop of mashed
potatoes to salmon patties.
I would never go to the trouble of removing those tiny bones. Tor me,
that's added nutrition.
