panko salmon patties

How To Make panko salmon patties

• 
  Step 1
  Drain and discard liquid from salmon; discard bones and skin, if desired.
• 
  Step 2
  Place salmon in mixing bowl; mix salt and fish sauce into beaten eggs; pour over salmon.
• 
  Step 3
  Using well-washed hands (food service gloves recommended,) mix lightly, add torn white bread crumbs and mix well, but try to preserve some larger pieces of salmon.
• Step 4
  Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
• 
  Step 5
  Pat the salmon down into the bowl evenly; use a knife to score and cut into 8 equal pieces (or you may just "eyeball" it, if you prefer.)
• Step 6
  Form each piece into a ball and place on baking sheet.
• 
  Step 7
  Place panko in a shallow bowl or pie pan.
• 
  Step 8
  Form a ball of the salmon into a patty, about an inch thick; place patty in panko, press it lightly and cover all sides with the panko.
• 
  Step 9
  Return patty to baking sheet; repeat until all patties are coated with panko.
• Step 10
  Place baking sheet with patties in refrigerator and allow to chill for 20 to 30 minutes.
• 
  Step 11
  In large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat; add salmon patties and fry, checking for browning, for approximately 7 minutes per side. Adjust heat as necessary to prevent over-browning. Add more of the butter as needed, especially as they are turned.
• 
  Step 12
  Press the patties lightly as they fry. They will be firm and browned when finished. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
• 
  Step 13
  Cover and refrigerate leftovers. Makes a great sandwich, also.
