• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 1 Red chili (finely minced)
• 1 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Lime juice
• 1 tsp Fresh ginger (grated)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, panko breadcrumbs, egg, scallions, cilantro, red chili, soy sauce, lime juice, and grated ginger. Mix well until evenly combined.

Step 2

Using your hands, form the mixture into four equal-sized patties and set them aside.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the tuna patties for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and let them rest on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, grated ginger, lemon juice, and salt to prepare the ginger lemon mayonnaise.

Step 5

Toast the burger buns lightly if desired, then spread a generous amount of the ginger lemon mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.

Step 6

Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a tuna patty and a few slices of cucumber. Top with the other half of the bun.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Thai Tuna Burgers with Ginger Lemon Mayonnaise!
