HOW TO MAKE OLD BAY SALMON CAKES
Step 1: Place all the ingredients in a large bowl. Gently mix until well combined and shape into about 6 to 8 small patties.
Step 2: In a hot nonstick pan, drizzle 2 tbsp of oil over medium heat and spread it around. Then, carefully lay each patty into the hot pan and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until the first side is golden brown. Gently flip the patty and continue to cook the other side for 3 to 4 minutes more until browned.
Step 3: To a serving plate, transfer the cooked salmon cakes and sprinkle them with coarse salt. Enjoy them with a squeeze of lemon.
