The cornbread gives this a Southern flair. You can use this base to make a variety of patties. = Salmon is my favorite, but I've made them with pretty much whatever I had on hand. Great for leftover salmon or even chicken. If you don't have leftover cornbread and don't want to make it, you can use breadcrumbs, or crushed crackers. You can also omit the potatoes if you don't have any.

6 -7 patties (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups salmon
1/2 cup mashed potatoes
1/2 cup diced bell pepper (any color)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup cornbread, crumbled (more if needed)
2 tablespoons horseradish sauce
1 tablespoon dill
1 tablespoon lemon juice (or lime)
1 tablespoon hot sauce
3-4 tablespoons oil, to fry

Directions

1
Blend potatoes, mayo, horseradish sauce, hot sauce, and lemon juice together.
2
Add salmon, dill, egg and bell pepper. Mix gently but well.
3
Stir in breadcrumbs, adding more if needed to hold mixture together.
4
Shape into patties.
5
Fry each side 4-5 minutes or until browned.
6
great on a bun or own it's own with a salad.

Hot hot hot, and I didn't' use the horseradish. Love the idea of using mashed potatoes as a filler, but if you don't like the heat, use less than the full tablespoon of hot sauce that is called for. Judy

Thanks Little Wing! Even my finicky husband agreed this was a 5 star recipe Easy to follow and make! I had to use crackers in the absence of cornbread but it still turned out great!

Wow, I had to try this recipe because I actually had leftover cornbread and mashed potatoes and 1 lb. of fresh salmon in the refrigerator. I used 1 cup each of cornbread and potatoes and steamed the salmon. I left the rest of the ingredients as is. These salmon cakes were very yummy. If there were leftovers, I bet they would be great heated up the next morning with an egg on top!

Little wing, these were amazing. I didn't use leftovers. I used a can of salomon and breadcrumbs and instant potatoes. Next time I will plan better! Everyone told me this was the best thing I had ever made. I don't know how to take that! Thanks again.
