Ingredients

For the Salmon Patties:

2 cans King Oscar Salmon in Olive Oil, oil reserved
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 tbsp mayo
2 tsp mustard
2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs (parsley, dill, basil, and/or oregano)
Oil, for frying

For the Lemon Aioli:

Reserved oil from the 2 cans of salmon
1/4 cup olive oil
1 egg yolk
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tbsp chopped herbs (parsley, dill, basil, and/or oregano)

Flaked Norwegian salmon mixed with fresh herbs, mustard, and breadcrumbs, pan-fried until golden and served with a bright lemon aioli made from the reserved olive oil.

Instructions

Make the Lemon Aioli: In a personal blender combine the reserved oil and juices from the salmon cans, olive oil, and egg yolk. Blend until creamy and thickened.
Add in the lemon juice, garlic, salt, and chopped herbs. Blend until well combined. Set aside.
In a bowl combine salmon, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, mayo, mustard, and fresh herbs.
Stir until evenly combined then divide and form into 4 patties.
Heat about 1/4” of oil in a skillet on medium-high heat. When the oil is about 350°F, cook patties on both sides until golden, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Serve with the lemon aioli or on a salad, as a salmon burger, or with pasta.
