While not my mama’s traditional recipe, these salmon potato croquettes give me the best of two things that I love…Salmon Croquettes and Potato Pancakes!  These croquettes are super easy.  Simply combine the salmon, cooked potatoes, onion, and a few ingredients.  Shape into patties and dredge in Panko crumbs before frying to a golden brown.  Top with the spicy garlic mustard sauce and get ready for the raves!

Super easy…just combine ingredients and shape into patties

Dredge in panko crumb mixture and you’re ready to fry!

1 cup cooked chopped potato
1/2 cup chopped onion

In a large bowl, combine salmon, potato, onion, eggs, 1/2 cup panko crumbs, seafood seasoning, celery seeds, and black pepper.  Mix remaining remaining panko crumbs and flour together in a shallow dish.  Shape salmon mixture into 6 equal patties and coat with panko/flour mixture.  In a large heavy skillet, heat vegetable oil on medium heat.  When oil is ready, place croquettes in the skillet and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.  Transfer to a paper towel lined platter.  Serve with Spicy Garlic Mustard Sauce.
