Here’s a super-simple, low-carb 3-ingredient salmon patties recipe—quick, healthy, and delicious:
Low-Carb 3-Ingredient Salmon Patties (Serves 2–3)
Ingredients:
- 1 can (14–15 oz / 400 g) salmon, drained and flaked (or 1 cup cooked fresh salmon, flaked)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (30 g) almond flour (or crushed pork rinds for extra crispiness)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: herbs (parsley, dill) or spices (paprika, garlic powder)
Instructions:
- Mix ingredients:
- In a bowl, combine salmon, eggs, almond flour, salt, pepper, and any optional herbs or spices.
- Mix until the mixture holds together.
- Form patties:
- Shape into 4–6 patties, depending on desired size.
- Cook patties:
- Heat 1–2 tbsp olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook patties 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve:
- Enjoy as-is, with a low-carb sauce (tartar, avocado, or aioli), or alongside a salad or roasted vegetables.
Tips:
- For extra crispiness, coat patties lightly with almond flour before frying.
- If the mixture is too wet, add a little more almond flour.
- Freeze uncooked patties for later; cook from frozen with a few extra minutes per side.
If you want, I can also give a baked version with 5 ingredients that’s even easier—no frying required and just as tasty.
