Salmon, potato, and green pea patties
Description
"You might ask, 'Isn't it easier to just make mashed potatoes, bake the fish, and serve it all with peas?' Yes, it's simpler, but served to 3-4 people, your version made with these ingredient amounts would look rather meager, don't you think? So let's make delicious patties that everyone will enjoy—especially since you can use leftover mashed potatoes from yesterday's lunch or dinner :)"
