Empty 1 can salmon and juice into large mixing bowl (remove bones). Add 2 eggs. Add lemon juice. Stir mixture well. Add onion, pepper, crackers. Stir.
Form into patties 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Set aside on plate or wax paper (make 5-6 patties). Let set 5 minutes.
In large frying pan heat 1/2 inch cooking oil to med. high temperature. Do not skimp on oil. When oil is hot place patties in pan and cook 4-5 minutes per side. Make sure patties get cooked all way through. Center should not be cold.
Patties will be beautifully brown, crunchy, and very delicious. Squeeze on some fresh lemon. mmmmm... they are to die for.

However, she served them with fresh, hot homemade biscuits and applesauce. Being raised in the South, we would cut open the biscuits, place the pattie inside, and eat it like that. Quick, cheap supper anytime!
I had OreIda Crinkle Fries as My side this time. I like rice as a side too. I believe the FUN of Salmon Patties is the different variations that give KICK!

I've never used breadcrumbs in my patty recipes because I never had the time or patience to stand there and toast bread then crunch it up, but I found some saltine crackers and it took the patties to another level! Best ever :3 thank you so much for the refresher recipe!
