  1 Lemon
  2 1/2 Tsp Grated Fresh Ginger
  Salt and Pepper
  5 Tbs Oil
  6 Cups Watercress Leaves
  1 Egg
  15 1/2 ounces Canned Salmon
  1 Scallion -- Chopped
  2 Tbs Chopped Fresh Parsley
  1 1/2 Cups Dry Bread Crumbs (+3 Tablespoons)

Squeeze 1 1/2 Tbs juice from lemon into small jar. Add 1/2 tsp ginger, 3/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper. Shake until salt disolves. Add 3 Tbs oil, shake to combine. Remove tough stems from watercress; divide leaves among 4 plates.

In large bowl, beat egg. Drain salmon, add to egg with remaining ginger, scallion, parsley, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Mix well and shape into 8 patties. In large non-stick frying pan, heat remaining oil over medium heat. Coat patties with remaining crumbs and cook until golden brown on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes.

Put 2 patties on each plate. Shake dressing again, pour over patties and watercress.

Recipe is to make 4 servings; however, recommend doubling if large servings are desired.
