Heat a pan with oil or butter over medium heat.
Add all the ingredients, except the oil to a bowl.
Mix well with a fork, lightly mashing the salmon as you mix to create a batter.
Shape the salmon mixture into 6 evenly formed patties, about ½" thick and 2"-3" in diameter.
Transfer these to the hot pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side.
They should be slightly darker than golden brown.
Remove from the pan and let rest on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess moisture.
