The flavour combination of salmon, cornmeal, and savoury spices is excellent in these Southern Fried Salmon Patties. These patties are delicate on the inside and crispy on the exterior, making them ideal for a fast dinner. They maintain their flavour and moisture thanks to the mayonnaise. They taste just as good but are healthier when made in an air fryer!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 (14 3/4 ounce) canned salmon
- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Vegetable oil spray (for the air fryer basket)

1. Get the salmon mixture ready.

- To the bowl, add the finely chopped onion, mayonnaise, cornmeal, flour, and egg.

3. Get the Air Fryer ready:

4. Prepare the patties:
