**Ingredients:**
– 1 can (14.75 oz) of canned salmon, drained and flaked
– 1 cup of mashed potatoes
– 1/4 cup of bread crumbs
– 1/4 cup of finely chopped red onion
– 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh dill
– 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
– 1 egg, beaten
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 tablespoons of olive oil
– Lemon wedges, for serving
**Instructions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, mashed potatoes, bread crumbs, red onion, dill, Dijon mustard, beaten egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2. Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties, shaping them into fish cakes of your desired size and thickness. If the mixture is too wet to handle, you can add a little more bread crumbs to help bind the ingredients together.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon fish cakes in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook the fish cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
4. Once the fish cakes are cooked through and nicely browned on both sides, remove them from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
5. Serve the salmon fish cakes hot with a side of lemon wedges for squeezing over the top. These fish cakes pair perfectly with a simple green salad or some fresh fruit for a well-rounded and satisfying breakfast.
