Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, eggs, red onion, garlic, capers, parsley, dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

2. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated.

3. Form the mixture into patties, about 1/4 cup each. For a firmer texture, chill the patties in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

5. Fry the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

6. Transfer patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

7. Serve warm with a side of tzatziki sauce or a fresh green salad.

Notes

– Canned salmon can be used for convenience.

– Chilling the patties before frying helps them hold together better.

– Adjust the capers and lemon according to your taste preference for a more pronounced Mediterranean flavor.
