1 16-ounce can salmon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
cold water, as needed
1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup celery, chopped
1 tablespoon green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup bread crumbs or cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions

Drain salmon and save liquid into a measuring cup. Add lemon juice and enough cold water to reach ½ cup liquid total. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine salmon, onion, celery and green pepper. Add eggs and mix, then add bread crumbs, flour and pepper. Add liquid and stir well. Shape 1/3 cup salmon mixture into a ½-inch thick patty. Repeat until you have six patties. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, add three patties. Cook 2-3 minutes, until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the next three patties. Serve immediately. If desired, top with lettuce, red onions and sprouts. Serve with pineapple.Serves 6
