SALMON CROQUETTES



Salmon Croquettes image

Salmon croquettes-a southern take on salmon patties with a golden, crispy crust-are easy and budget friendly, thanks to canned salmon.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

15 ounces canned boneless, skinless salmon packed in water* (look for a sustainable brand and make sure the bones/skin are removed)
2 large eggs
1 small red bell pepper (finely diced)
1/2 small white or red onion (finely chopped)
1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (optional; I used Tabasco)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
1/3 cup finely ground yellow cornmeal or all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (divided (for cooking the patties))
1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch kosher salt
2 to 3 dashes hot sauce (optional)
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (cilantro, or basil (optional))

Steps:

  • Drain the salmon well and place in a large mixing bowl.
  • Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
  • To the bowl with the salmon, add the bell pepper, onion, Greek yogurt Worcestershire, kosher salt, pepper, celery salt, hot sauce, parsley, and beaten eggs.
  • With a fork, mix until evenly combined.
  • Place the cornmeal in a shallow dish (a pie plate works well). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place it near the cornmeal.
  • Shape the salmon mixture into 8 patties, then lightly coat both sides of each in the cornmeal. To shape the patties, squeeze lightly with your hands discarding a little bit of liquid that may come out of the patties. Press them together gently but with enough force so that they hold together. The patties will feel loose, wet, and delicate; be patient and do your best, they'll cook up fine! Place the patties on the baking sheet as you go.
  • Cover the pan with plastic and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 1 day.
  • While the patties chill, prepare the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, hot sauce, and herbs. Refrigerate if you won't be serving within 30 minutes.
  • To cook the patties, heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, swirl the pan, then gently place the first batch of patties in the skillet so that they are not touching (I can fit 4 at a time in my skillet, but you may need to cook additional batches if your skillet isn't large enough). Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the outsides are crisp and golden and the interiors are cooked through. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, swirl, then repeat with remaining patties. If at any point the croquettes begin to stick, add more oil as needed. If desired, keep the croquettes warm in a 250 degree F oven between batches. Enjoy hot with dipping sauce.

Provided by Greg Lofts

Categories     Finger Food Recipes

Time 2h40m

Yield Makes about 20

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 russet potatoes (about 1 1/4 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal) and freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs, plus 2 large yolks
1/4 cup chopped scallion greens (whites reserved for another use)
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 1 tablespoon fresh juice
3 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
7 1/2 ounces red salmon (1 tin), drained and flaked, any skin and bones removed and discarded, or cold-smoked salmon
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil, such as safflower, for frying
Flaky sea salt, such as Jacobsen
Zesty Tomato and Curried-Sour-Cream Dipping Sauces, for serving

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine potatoes and enough cold water to fully submerge them. Bring to a boil. Season with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and boil until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain; let potatoes cool 5 minutes, then press through a ricer or colander and stir until smooth (or mash until smooth). Transfer to a large bowl; let cool completely.
  • Stir egg yolks, scallions, lemon zest and juice, flour, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into mashed potatoes. Fold in salmon. Form mixture into golf-ball-size rounds, then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick disks. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or, loosely covered, up to 1 day.
  • Whisk whole eggs in a shallow bowl and season with kosher salt and pepper. Place panko in another shallow bowl and season. Pour a scant 1/2 inch oil into a medium heavy-bottomed skillet, such as cast iron. Heat over medium until oil shimmers and bubbles form instantly around a breadcrumb dropped in (350°F on a deep-fry thermometer). Working in batches, dip croquettes in egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl, then coat in panko, pressing to adhere.
  • Fry, flipping once and adjusting heat as needed to maintain a level temperature, until crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet, then sprinkle with flaky salt; keep warm in a preheated 200°F oven while frying the rest. Serve warm, with dipping sauces.

SPICY SALMON PATTIES



Spicy Salmon Patties image

I love spicy foods, and i only make these every blue moon, and when i do my fiance can't get enough of them. I normaly add hot sauce, cilantro, and onions, but i didn't add it to this, but your welcome to add it to the salmon mixture before breading.

Provided by Mrs. Moss

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (7 ounce) cans salmon
2 eggs
1/3 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
seasoning salt
garlic powder
crushed red pepper flakes
salt
pepper
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cornmeal or 1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
3/4 cup canola oil

Steps:

  • OPEN THE CANS OF SALMON AND DISCARD THE JUICE INTO THE SINK OR A BOWL.
  • HAVE THE SALMON FACING TOWARD YOU AND YOU SHOULD SEE A SMALL ROUND WHITE OR OPAQUE CIRCLE IN THE MIDDLE. THAT IS THE BONE, GENTLY PULL APART THE SALMON (FROM BOTH SIDES, LIKE BREAKING OPEN A MUFFIN) FROM WHERE THE BONE IS AND IT SHOULD BE ONE LONG SPINE LOOKING PIECE. REMOVE THE ENTIRE PIECE, SOMETIMES ONE CAN WILL HAVE TWO STRINGS OF BONE SO JUST TURN THE SALMON OVER AND LOOK FOR ANOTHER BONE. DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE LITTLE BONES ON THE SIDE, THOSE WILL COOK DOWN TO A GEL AND YOU WON'T TASTE IT.
  • AFTER DE-BONING THE SALMON BREAK IT APART WITH A FORK AND ADD THE SEASONING SALT, GARLIC POWDER, & CRUSHED RED PEPPER (ADD ALL TO TASTE), EGGS, 1/3 ITALIAN BREAD CRUMBS AND MIX TOGETHER.
  • NOW IT'S TIME TO MAKE THE BREADING, PUT THE FLOUR, ½ CORN MEAL/ BREAD CRUMBS AND SALT AND PEPPER IN BOWL AND SIFT TOGETHER WITH A FORK.
  • TAKE AN AMPLE AMOUNT OF THE SALMON MIXTURE AND MOLD IT INTO A PATTIE NO BIGGER THAN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND AND COVER BOTH SIDES WITH THE BREADING.
  • AFTER THE OIL HAS HEATED IN THE FRYING PAN ( IT WILL LOOK LIKE LITTLE WAVES OF RIPPLES) PLACE PATTIES INTO THE HOT OIL.
  • They should hold together, let them reach a nice dark golden brown on each side and when you take them out put them on a paper towel on a plate. For an extra kick squeeze fresh lime juice on them as soon as you take them out of the pan, just before they cool.

ZESTY SALMON CROQUETTES

These salmon patties have a lot more flavor to them than the usual bland salmon cakes or salmon croquettes.

Provided by MISSIVONNE

Time 25m

Yield 6

1 (14.75 ounce) can salmon - drained, deboned, and flaked
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup bread crumbs
½ cup minced onion
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
oil for frying

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. For the best flavor and texture, use fresh or frozen wild-caught salmon. Avoid farmed salmon, as it can be bland and have a higher fat content.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Use a good binder. A good binder will help to hold the croquettes together. Some common binders include eggs, bread crumbs, and mashed potatoes.
  • Season the croquettes well. Don't be afraid to use plenty of herbs and spices to flavor the croquettes. Some good options include lemon zest, dill, and paprika.
  • Fry the croquettes until they are golden brown. This will help to create a crispy outer layer and a moist and flaky interior.

Conclusion:

Zesty salmon croquettes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
