When I say these are the best Brussels Sprouts I've ever had, I'm not lying. Not hyping them up because of my blog. They are LEGIT. THE. BEST. We've made them dozens of times! They are crispy, sweet, a little spicy, and the perfect amount of salt.

Gochujang is a Korean Red Chili Paste that has a similar flavor profile to Miso, but sweeter and strong flavors of chili. It is available now in most super markets in the International section but also available on amazon . It is not very spicy (in my opinion) but has SO much flavor. If you can't find this product for some reason, you could swap it with Sriracha, but that will be much spicier.

Honestly though, these are so fast to make. I have also roasted them off in the oven and they still come out great. For the oven, cook them at 400° for about 25 minutes.

I got my first Air Fryer about a year ago and it was an instant love affair. Air Frying makes my life so much easier. Meals cook quicker, I'm not heating up the whole oven to cook one thing, and clean up is easy! My basket can go right in the dishwasher! There are so many options available now. I've seen many ranging from $30-$200.

These Salmon cakes caught me by surprise. They were incredibly moist, yet crispy from the panko. Never in a million years did I think I would cook with canned salmon, but you know what? It's cheap, easy, and I decided to try it.

After reading a lot of feedback on Air Frying forums about dry Salmon Patties, I decided to switch the bread crumbs for panko. It absorbs less of the moisture while giving it that really satisfying crunch. I did add in some mayo and oil (not much but a little helps a lot).

I'm not going to lie, breaking down and separating the bones and skin from the Salmon wasn't the most fun kitchen job I've ever done. I think that I'll have to get used to it though, because these were totally the bomb. They are like a crab cakes that costs a fraction of the money. 

I recently switched to using a non-propellant cooking oil spray for the air fryer. I will go between this and just brushing on avocado oil if it's already a really low fat recipe. This one from costco works great!

Yield: 5

Author: Molly

prep time: 15 Mcook time: 15 Mtotal time: 30 M

These crispy and moist Salmon Cakes get their crunch from Panko. Easy and inexpensive to make, they are a great appetizer or meal prep!

ingredients:

For the Salmon Cakes

• 1 can of Salmon (14.75 oz) bones and skin removed

• 1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
• 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
• 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
• 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
