Tonight we had salmon patties, lima beans, and rice. The important things here are the salmon and the limas, because rice is pretty easy.
I actually tried a new recipe tonight for the salmon. Normally I just use the recipe on the label. Here's what you need:
- 2 Tbs Dijon mustard
- 2 eggs
- 1 can salmon (drain and debone it)
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 cup crackers (crushed)
- ***you can use all cracker or all cornmeal, I just like the mixture***
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 Tbs minced garlic
- 1/2 Cup grated sharp cheddar cheese,
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup mayo
- salt and pepper to taste
- oil for frying
Then add in the mayo and mustard. Combine well.
Add in paprika, garlic, and salt and pepper.
I like to crumble my salmon in a separate bowl and salt and pepper it.
Add salmon to liquid mixture.
Add dry ingredients and mix well. It should form a pretty solid ball that holds together.
Heat oil to medium heat in a skillet.
Scoop out tablespoon sized balls of salmon, flatten between palms, and gently drop into oil.
Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes each side (or until golden brown and crispy).
Remove to paper towel lined plate.
Serve with ketchup (or your favorite dipping sauce).
Here's my secret to lima beans: salt, pepper, butter. That's it. Just follow the directions on the bag (frozen is best!) and add a bunch of butter and some salt and pepper. Don't get too complicated.
