1/4 cup mayo
1 large beaten egg

with canned salmon pop open the can and remove the small bones out of the salmon first
shred salmon with for or seperate with spoon. Then add all spices, mayo and egg then mix
After mixing combine almond flour, whey protein isolate and xanthan gum together. Then sprinkle over salmon and mix with spoon or hand
In heaping tablespoons roll salmon into a ball then flatten and cook on medium to high heat with a little olive oil or oil of choice in pan. Just watch heat levels not to reach the oils smoking point

If using fresh salmon wrap up in foil and cook in oven at 350ºF for about 20 minutes. You want the salmon tender enough to be able to shred it easily
After salmon is done allow it to cool down and then follow all the steps above.
