Salmon Croquettes

Another childhood blast from our past recipe.  Our Mom used to make these all the time and she served them with pasta with red sauce.  They have stood the test of time and I make these on a regular basis for my family too.

Ingredients:

3 eggs
2 - 6 oz cans of pink salmon (skinless & boneless)
2 stalks of celery diced small
1/2 an onion diced small
6 slices of bread (white or wheat), no crust, cubed
salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil for frying

Preparation:

Cut celery and onion into small dice.  Drain salmon, place in medium size bowl and break up with a fork.  Add celery and onion to salmon and combine.  Remove crust from bread, cube and add to salmon mixture.  Add 3 eggs and with a fork mix until combined well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.  Heat oil in large non-stick skillet and with your hands form salmon mixture into small patties and fry on both sides until golden brown.  Drain on paper towel and sprinkle with kosher salt.  Serve hot.
