Salmon Patties

This recipe is one that we had at my house growing up.  Momma always served it with rolls and corn.  Grandma always served it with buttered potatoes.  I have served it both ways and have served it with rice and veggies.




Salmon Patties
Ingredients
1 can boneless salmon
1 egg
4 biscuits, crumbled

Directions
  1. Put enough oil into a skillet to just cover the bottom.  
  2. Preheat the oil in the skillet on medium-low heat.  (On my stove top, I put the temperature on "4.")
  3. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.  You may not need all of the biscuit crumbs.  When you can press the mixture down and little or now waters pressed out, you have enough crumbs.  
  4. Form into 2-3 inch patties.  
  5. Place into hot oil in a skillet and cook until each side is golden brown. You know your oil is hot enough when you drop in a piece of batter and it starts to sizzle.
  6. Once done, place on paper towel to drain.
Notes
This recipe will make 6-8 patties depending on the size you make them.

If you do not want to make biscuits or do not have any on hand, you can use bread crumbs, cracker crumbs or just tear up any bread you have to mix into the salmon.  MY grandmother would use extra hotdog and hamburger buns.  They all work great!

Did not eat them all the first time?  That's ok!  You can refrigerate them and eat them the next day.

How much does this cost?

So, there isn't going to be an "Is it worth it" section since I do not think you can buy already prepared salmon patties at the grocery store.  If I am wrong, please let me know and I will change this section!  Instead, I will note the cost of making this meal.

1 can salmon = $2.00
1 egg = $.14
4 biscuits = $.20


Summary

This meal costs $2.34 to make.
