Combine the salmon, bread crumbs, egg, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, parsley, and dill in a medium bowl.
Scoop the mixture and form it into small patties. For small patties, use a ¼ cup measuring cup. For larger, use a ½ cup measuring cup.
Continue until all the salmon has been used. Make sure the patties are all the same thickness for even cooking.
AIR FRY PATTIES:
Place patties in the air fryer basket. You may need to do this in batches.
Spray the patties with olive oil spray.
Air fry for 3 minutes, then flip them over and respray.
Fry an additional 2 minutes for small patties or 5 minutes for larger patties.
MAKE DILL SAUCE:
Add the ingredients for the dill sauce in a small bowl.
Whisk until smooth and creamy.
SERVE:
Serve hot salmon patties with the dill sauce.
Notes
For extra crispy patties, spray when you place them in the air fryer, then again halfway through the cooking time.
These are made with canned salmon, and here is a list of the best kinds to choose from: Wild Planet, Sea Bear, Safe Catch, and Bumble Bee Wild Caught Pink Salmon. Any Wild caught is better than farmed.
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer. It needs room for the air to circulate and fry properly.
Most canned salmon contains skin, which is perfectly fine to eat and gives more flavor and nutrients.
