One of my favorite recipes that I remember from my youth and even now I enjoy occasionally is Pops Salmon Croquettes. They are simply delicious and will make you slap yourself.

 This recipe call for:

1 can of Pink Salmon

1 egg

1 small onion

1 cup of corn meal (Yellow or white.

2 cups of Vegetable Oil 

Pour the Vegetable oil in a fry pan or medium size skillet. Place the skillet over medium heat until it is hot enough to brown the croquettes.

Mix the Salmon and egg together mashing the salmon as you stir vigorously. Then finely chop the oinon and mix it in with the Salmon and egg mix.

Pour the cup of corn meal on a platter and spread it out so you can roll the mix in it.

Take a fourth of the Salmon mix and shape it in a ball. Then roll it into the meal until it is covered completely.

Make three other balls of equal size and do them the same way. 

Then Pat them and flatten them on top and bottom and place them gently with a spatula in the preheated skillet carefully.

Let each one of them brown until golden on the bottom and turn them over carefully in the skillet. After each one is golden brown on the top and bottom and on the sides (because the oil should be sufficient to cover at least half of the Croquettes. Remove them to a platter and then serve with rice, peas or your favorite salad and your favorite tea, lemonade or beverage. Enjoy.

    These look delectable. I am having my mom make these for me as soon as it stops snowing and she can go get the salmon.
