Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Fresh salmon fillets (skinless)
- 60 grams Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 stalks Green onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil (for cooking)
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 1 variety Toppings (lettuce, tomato, red onion, etc.)
Instructions
1. Cut the salmon fillets into smaller chunks, then place them in a food processor. Pulse a few times until the salmon is coarsely ground. Avoid over-processing — you want the mixture to have some texture.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground salmon, panko breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, green onions, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
3. Divide the mixture evenly into four portions. Shape each portion into a burger patty, approximately 2.5 cm thick. Place the patties on a plate or tray and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
4. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the salmon patties in the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Be careful when flipping to avoid breaking the patties.
5. While the patties cook, lightly toast the burger buns in a toaster or under a broiler until golden and warm.
6. Assemble the burgers: place the cooked salmon patty on the bottom half of the bun, then add your preferred toppings (lettuce, tomato, slices of red onion, etc.) and condiments such as mayonnaise, tartar sauce, or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Top with the other half of the bun.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade salmon burgers!
