Salmon Patties RecipeDecember 03, 2009By cjwilson2740
"Yes, I thought this sounded like a great recipe but it turned out just simply awful. What a waste of good food, time and energy. Guests were on the way. I prepared the mixture a day ahead so it would be nice and cold and firm for the patties. It turned out to be a gooey mess that would not form patties. I dipped one in bread crumbs, managed to get it into the oil and it just dissolved. So then I had to clean up the mess, bread crumbs, egg mixture, pan of oil. Then toss the cucumber sauce and try to round up another dinner for my company. Don't waste your time."
