Directions

In a large bowl, flake apart salmon with a fork. Add eggs and mix well. Finely chop 4 scallions and add to the bowl, followed by water chestnuts, cilantro, pepper, and bread crumbs. Mix well.
3.
Shape the mixture into 12 patties. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil over medium heat. Add the patties in batches and cook for 5 minutes on each side.

In a small bowl, combine the thickened or Greek-style yogurt with mayonnaise, ginger, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Whisk until smooth.
