This delightful recipe was inspired by my husband's grandmother, who affectionately called it Salmon Patties. It's a simple yet flavorful dish made with canned Alaskan Pink Salmon, potatoes, and Sofrito. I prefer to serve these Salmon Cakes with my yogurt and cilantro garlic sauce, but you can choose your favorite pairing. These Alaskan Pink Salmon cakes or patties are the perfect recipe for a quick, delicious and nutritious family dinner.
