I love this recipe from an old issue of Bon Appétit, with capers and horseradish - delicious!

1 pound salmon fillet, cut into 1/4" cubes
4 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 large egg (my addition)
1 tablespoon fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried 
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
3 tablespoons of mayonaise

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

 Sauce - optional

1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup plain yogurt
4 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish

 
Combine first 9 ingredients in medium bowl. Add 3 tablespoons mayonnaise and mix well. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Mix breadcrumbs into salmon mixture. Form into four 1-inch-thick patties.*

Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon patties; cook until just firm to touch and brown and crusty, about 3 minutes per side.

To make mayonnaise
Combine all ingredients in bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)

*I get more than 4 from this recipe, I prefer to make them smaller.

Also, after forming the patties, I refrigerate them for a while. It firms them up nicely.

This is my tried and true recipe using canned red salmon:

1 14.75-oz can red salmon

2 tbsp melted butter

1/2 cup cracker crumbs (I use Ritz)

1 tsp minced garlic

2 beaten eggs

1 tbsp dried parsley

1 tsp Dijon mustard

1/4 tsp dill weed

1 tsp Old Bay seasoning

3 tbsp shortening or vegetable oil

Drain and flake salmon in bowl.  Stir in butter, cracker crumbs, dill weed, Old Bay, eggs, parsley, garlic, and mustard.  Shape into patties and refrigerate on platter in refrigerator for an hour.

Melt shortening in skillet and fry patties until browned.

Creamy Lemon-Herb Sauce

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp dried parsley

1 tsp thyme leaves

Mix all ingredients in dish and season with salt and pepper.   Chill in refrigerator for 1/2 hour.

Like @goldensrbest  I use one large can of salmon..I add one egg...stalk of celery chopped fine...some finely chopped onion...not too much...seasoned  panko crumbs...I like the idea of Old Bay...think I'll use some next time I make them...I then make the patties and refrigerate a couple hrs before I sauté them in butter till they are browned on both sides...DW

My husband likes salmon patties.  I've made them twice but I have trouble cooking them.  They come out over done on the outside and seems undercooked on this inside.  I don't make them too thick, actually husband says mine are small compared to his mom's.  What am I doing wrong?

I make mine in the air fryer, and this is the recipe I use and love!  And the recipe link for lemon sauce at the bottom of the recipe?  To-die-for!

@ScrapHappy   What type of salmon are you using?  You must use cooked salmon or canned salmon, which is already cooked.  All you need to do is cook the outside to a golden color.  The inside will be warm, but never undercooked.

I saute my onions first because I do not want to bite into a raw onion.  You can make them whatever size you want..appetizer or entree size.
