Salmon Burgers

These were great! I made substituting the oat bran for oatmeal. I fine chopped them in the blender before adding them to the mix. Worked well. Loved these burgers and will have again. I like the fact they are fairly healthy and they really taste great! Thanks for this recipe Paula!

We loved this for a couple of reasons. This year (2008) is going to be an inflationary year, what with oil at over $100 per barrel (!) and this is an economical recipe. Also, it's delicious!! In a sense fish cakes are fish cakes, but Paula's recipe makes the most of canned salmon and is healthy as well. I did not sub anything except didn't use skim milk but 2% milk, and real eggs. We felt these were best with a glob of good real-tomato ketchup. This recipe is healthy and low-fat and highly recommended. The quantities given are perfect, and I had no need to add liquid from the cans. Thanks, Paula, for a recipe I'l use again and again. PS, 2 days later: Husband said, "Not true, I did NOT need ketchup at all!! I loved the burgers just as they were!" He used the leftover burger as a sandwich filling the day after I'd made them. Just so you know, Paula, LOL!

When I saw this recipe I thought Ah!! just what I am looking for. I have had a tin of Alaskan salmon in my larder just waiting for this recipe. Everything about this recipe is healthy and so good for you I made them just as written, and I had mine with a small side salad and a little light mayonnaise. I will definitely make them again I do like tinned salmon, maybe I will have them on a bun next time. made for diabeties month November 2010 Thank you for posting.

Very tasty, but I had some trouble getting them to stay together. Made for ZWT6.

I wanted fish...my husband wanted burgers. This was the perfect compromise! We both loved it. He even asked me to keep the recipe...so SCORE! Thank you for posting it! ZWT6

Really marvelous! I made a half amount using a 7 1/2 oz can of salmon and it made 4 lovely patties. DH and I both enjoyed one and we have 2 left so it's very economical as well as delicious! Lots of good health things happening in this recipe. Thanks bunches for this one Paula!

Instead of oat bran I used seasoned bread crumbs and left out the jalapeno pepper. I used one egg to bind them together and they turned out fine.

These were really sensational, Paula! I don't use oat bran much and love that these burgers use it! The burgers hold together but don't use an excess of binder. The jalapeno/rosemary flavors really "make" the flavor. We grilled them (gas grill) and find it better to cook longer on first side to ensure ease in getting off the grill. Note: I used two small cans of Costco salmon, real eggs, and less milk). Thanks Paula, for posting. Roxygirl

Very good! I used salmon that came in foil pouches and probably should have drained it better because I could not get my cakes to adhere together. I ended up having to add a bit more oat bran, but the flavor was fantastic. I also added in some Old Bay seasoning. I served this with a dollop of tartar sauce over a bed of mixed field greens and drizzled a little olive oil over the top and it was yummy. Thanks for sharing a great recipe!

These were delicious. I used a red bell pepper and sour orange instead of lemon juice. For whatever reason, I needed some extra oat bran. I made them a bit smaller, ended up with 10 patties. I think these would be outstanding made even smaller and served as an appetizer.

Incredible! I followed the recipe exactly and the patties stuck together perfectly without using any milk. These are flavorful but not in a fishy way (my husband who doesn't like salmon loved them) and have the consistency of crab cakes - so would be better called salmon cakes than salmon burgers. I made a sauce of wasabi and fat free mayo but these are great on their own.

Delicious!! Strayed from the recipe a bit...used 1 egg, sweet chili sauce, and rice milk. I also found that I had to add more oat bran to make the patties manageable. They didn't have that fishy taste at all... Thanks for sharing PaulaG!!

Like Andrea, I used wheat germ because that is what I had on hand. Also, I used some red pepper flakes because no jalapenos. I also put the chopped onion and peppers in some water in the microwave for a minute because I was concerned that they might not cook through when I cooked the patties....I don't like raw onions!! A nice salmon burger and easy and quick to make.

These are great! I'm always looking for ways to get my Omega-3 requirements. I did make a couple of changes. Didn't have an egg so that was left out. I used wheat germ in place of the oat bran. I sprayed a baking dish with oil and made 4 loose patties. Bake them at 400 for 10-15 mins. Thanks for another great recipe PaulaG.

Very tasty and healthy salmon burgers. As advised I added 1/2 cup of chopped onion and I used a red one. I followed the recipe exactly and served the burgers on a bun with lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumber & mayo.
