I made this with a leftover salmon filet we'd grilled a few nights before. We don't have a good track record with leftover salmon--it tends to get tossed out after several days. My mother-in-law suggested several times that we make croquettes, but didn't have any recipes. I looked up several through a google search, but couldn't find one simple enough. A friend of mine suggested looking here, on foodnetwork.com, and lo and behold, I found this gem.

I did end up tweaking it slightly, since the initial mixture seemed a little "wet" for my tastes. I added 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs, which fixed that, but then it was too dry. I then added two teaspoons (or so of the marinade I'd used to grill the salmon initially. That fixed the texture issue I had. I also fried the croquettes in vegetable oil, rather than baking, because I was impatient, and didn't want to wait for the oven to pre-heat. I also mixed the seasoning salt and pepper to the egg, and then beat them all together, so they would be distributed in the fish and onion mixture more uniformly.

My results were good. My children complained about the pepper content, so next time, I think I will halve the pepper, and maybe add parsley instead. I'll also chop the onions finer, since there were quite a few chunks lost in the coating and frying processes.

I just made these exactly as the directions called for. There was not much taste and will never try again. I did use a very good salmon which I just wasted on this recipe.

I Really Like this recipe , especially since it is Baked . I Did use Garlic and Herb Bread Crumbs instead of the cornmeal . Fantastic flavor !

I only used 1/2 an onion I we still thought the onion overpowered the dish. I added some Thyme & Rosemary but it was hardly noticed due to the onion. I'll try this again with 1/4 onion. The texture was great.

I have been eating these for years. They are easy to make and very good to eat. By the way, my mother's last name is misspelled. It's Watt, not Wyatt.
