3 tablespoons mayonnaise

Directions:

Begin by thoroughly draining the canned salmon. Flake the salmon into a mixing bowl using a fork.

Add finely chopped onion, cornmeal, flour, egg, and mayonnaise to the bowl with the salmon. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

Shape the mixture into patties, about the size of an average burger or slightly smaller.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the patties into the skillet and cook until golden brown on each side, turning once during cooking.

Once cooked through and crispy on the outside, remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

Serve hot and enjoy these delightful salmon cakes, perfect for any meal of the day!

Note: The addition of mayonnaise ensures the patties maintain their shape and remain moist.

Indulge in these Southern salmon cakes and savor the crunchy exterior complemented by tender, flavorful salmon within. They’re sure to become a favorite among family and friends!
