Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can canned salmon (about 14 oz), drained
  • 1 cup plant-based breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying

Variations (Optional)

  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes or hot paprika for spice
  • Fresh dill or cilantro in place of parsley
  • 1/4 cup grated zucchini or carrots for veggie boost
  • Gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed nuts for gluten-free option
  • 1/4 cup shredded plant-based cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Salmon Mixture: Drain the canned salmon and place it in a large mixing bowl. Flake the salmon gently with a fork to avoid large chunks. Add chopped onions, parsley, plant-based breadcrumbs, eggs, lemon juice (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), garlic powder (natural), salt, and pepper. Mix everything until just combined, keeping a slightly chunky texture.
  2. Form the Patties: Divide the mixture into even portions using your hands or a scoop. Shape each portion gently into a patty about three inches wide, taking care not to press too hard to maintain tenderness.
  3. Cook the Patties: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Place the patties carefully into the pan, leaving space between each. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until the exterior is golden brown and the patties feel firm.
  4. Drain and Serve: Remove cooked patties from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of sides and garnishes for a delicious meal.

Notes

  • Do not overmix to keep texture appealing and patties tender.
  • Chill patties in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before cooking to help them hold together.
  • Shape patties with a gentle hand to avoid compacting them too much.
  • Taste a small cooked piece to adjust seasoning before frying the entire batch.
  • Cook patties in batches to ensure even browning and avoid steaming.
