INGREDIENTS:

  • 5 large potatoes, peeled and halved
  • 3 cups water to cover
  • 1 (14.75 ounce) can canned salmon
  • 1 egg
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 quart vegetable oil for frying

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a small saucepan, cover peeled potatoes with water. Bring water to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Let cool and mash.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together salmon, egg, potatoes, salt and pepper. Mold the mixture into patties (whatever size you choose). Coat both sides of the patties with flour.
  3. Heat oil over a medium-high heat in a large skillet. Fry the patties (2 or 3 at a time) on both sides until golden brown. Drain on paper towels before serving.
