Method
Step 1
Gather the ingredients. Drain the liquid from the canned salmon into a measuring cup. Add enough milk to measure 1 cup. Flake the salmon into a large bowl, and pick it over for any large bones. Set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
Step 2
Gently saute onion, red bell pepper, and celery in the butter until softened but not browned. Whisk in the flour until smooth, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the milk mixture while continuing to stir, and cook until thickened. Remove from heat.
Step 3
Stir in the flaked salmon, hot sauce, lemon juice, chives, dill weed, and 1/2 cup of the breadcrumb mixture. Refrigerate the salmon mixture until firm. If you want, you can make this dish in advance, reserving the mixture until you are ready.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 400 ℉. Line a shallow baking sheet with nonstick foil, and spray with oil. Divide chilled salmon mixture into 8 portions, and form into patties. Place the remaining breadcrumb mixture on a shallow plate.
Step 5
Coat both sides of the salmon patties with the crumbs, and place on prepared baking sheet 2 inches apart. Spray the tops lightly with oil. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with tartar sauce and lemon wedges, if desired.
