My Boys Ate Salmon Croquettes And Loved Them!!

I tried a new recipe from The Blue Willow Inn: Bible of Southern Cooking cookbook! It was simple, fun and easy!

Salmon Croquettes

1 Can of Salmon Packed in Water (14.75 ounce)
2 Eggs
1 Tablespoon Chopped Onions
1/4 Cup All-Purpose Flour
Cooking Oil

In a medium-size bowl, combine the salmon, eggs, onions, and flour. Mix well. Roll the salmon mixture into balls about the size of golf balls. If the mixture seems too loose, add more flour and mix well. Pat into rounds about 1/2 inch thick. In a heavy skillet pour enough cooking oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Cook the salmon patties on medium heat for 7 to 8 minutes on each side, adding oil when necessary to cover the bottom of the skillet. After the patties are done, remove them from the skillet and drain on paper towels. (3 Servings)

I put in a lot more oil than I should have (I used Olive Oil) and I saw the "three servings" and thought it would only made THREE patties. Yeah, if they were the size of large pancakes! I made three big ones and the remaining ones were smaller size -- which I will do the smaller ones in the future. We had lima beans (we could only get Matthew to eat them when we told him for every bean he ate -- there would be a fart) and applesauce. The boys ate tons of the salmon!!! Yes!
