Superhealthy salmon burgers
If you're after something a bit lighter than potato-packed fishcakes, try these simple oriental-style burgers
- Serves 4
- Easy
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless salmon fillets, about 550g/1lb 4oz in total, cut into chunks
- 2 tbsp Thai red curry paste
- thumb-size piece fresh root ginger, grated
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 bunch coriander, half chopped, half leaves picked
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
- lemon wedges, to serve
- 2 carrots
- half large or 1 small cucumber
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tsp golden caster sugar
Tip
Oily fish makes a heart-healthy
alternative to red meat burgers. This
recipe would also be delicious with tuna steaks.
Thai salmon skewers
Mix the curry paste, ginger, soy and oil with 1 tsp
honey and seasoning. Marinate the salmon chunks
in the curry mixture for 10 mins. Cut 1 red pepper
and 1 courgette into chunks, then thread onto
skewers with the salmon. Griddle for 8 mins,
turning, until the salmon is cooked through.
Method
-
Tip the salmon into a food processor with the paste, ginger, soy and chopped coriander. Pulse until roughly minced. Tip out the mix and shape into 4 burgers. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan, then fry the burgers for 4-5 mins on each side, turning until crisp and cooked through.
-
Meanwhile, use a swivel peeler to peel strips of carrot and cucumber into a bowl. Toss with the vinegar and sugar until the sugar has dissolved, then toss through the coriander leaves. Divide the salad between 4 plates. Serve with the burgers and rice.
