Ingredients
- 450 grams skinless salmon fillet
- 60 grams panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 stalks green onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 120 grams plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.5 piece cucumber, thinly sliced
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
Directions
Step 1
Chop the salmon fillet into small pieces, then pulse in a food processor until coarsely ground. Do not over-process; it should still have some texture.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground salmon, panko breadcrumbs, egg, green onion, cilantro, lime zest, curry powder, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties. Place the patties on a plate, cover, and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
Step 4
While the patties chill, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt and lime juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the salmon patties and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through.
Step 6
Toast the burger buns in the skillet or in a toaster until lightly crispy.
Step 7
Build the burgers by spreading a generous layer of the lime yogurt sauce on the bottom bun. Add a lettuce leaf, then the salmon patty, and top with cucumber slices. Finish with the upper bun.
Step 8
Serve immediately with your favorite side dish, such as sweet potato fries or a fresh salad.
