Lubys Salmon Croquettes Recipe 435

Steps:

• Place salmon and juice in large mixing bowl. Discard any bones and skin. Press salmon flat against pan and check for remaining bones. Flake haddock or cod and add to salmon. Add the potatoes and onions. Add the eggs, paprika, and crackers; mix well. Mold into 4 1/2 ounce portions. Dust croquettes in flour. Whip eggs and buttermilk with a fork until well- mixed. Dip the croquettes in mixture. Place them into crackers and fluff crackers around the salmon. Avoid pressing the crumbs into the croquettes. Deep fry at 300 degrees for 7 mins.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix all of the ingredients, except cornmeal, in a large bowl. Using your hands, form the salmon mixture into small balls, and then roll the balls in cornmeal. Spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray, arrange the balls on the cookie sheet, and flatten each ball on the surface.
• Bake for 25 minutes or until browned. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the salmon, egg, celery, green onion, dill, and garlic powder. Form the mixture into golf ball sized balls, and roll in wheat germ to coat.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Flatten the balls slightly, and fry for about 10 minutes, turning as needed, until golden brown.

Steps:

• If using canned salmon, drain and discard the liquid. Flake the salmon into a large bowl; set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium and sauté peppers and onions until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds; let cool slightly.
• Add the sautéed veggies to the bowl with the salmon, along with 1 egg, 1/4 cup flour, the parsley, seafood seasoning, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 20 minutes, or pop into the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Using your hands, shape the chilled mixture into 1-inch-thick patties.
• Set up three separate plates or shallow bowls: one filled with the remaining 1/4 cup flour, another with the egg and a third with the panko. Season the panko with the seasoning of your choice, then lightly dip each croquette into the flour, egg then panko, coating to cover. Set the croquettes aside.
• Wipe out the same pan, and heat about 1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil over medium. Drop a bread crumb in the oil, and see if it sizzles.
• Gently place croquettes in oil, making sure not to crowd the pan, and pan fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and serve warm, with tartar sauce or hot sauce if desired.
