In a skillet, add half the oil and saute onion and bell pepper together till soft.
Meanwhile, mix salmon, egg, potatoes and seasonings together in a bowl. When onion mixture has cooled a bit, add to the salmon mixture. Make into 6 salmon patties. Heat remaining oil in skillet over medium heat and cook patties 5 minutes each side or until completely cooked. Serve on warmed hamburger buns.
Notes
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Serve with the usual fixings for hamburgers–lettuce, tomato, onion and mustard, mayonnaise and ketchup. A green salad will round this off nicely.
