Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 pound salmon, skin and fat removed, cut in about 1/2-inch dice
3 tablespoons finely diced ginger
2 tablespoons chopped scallions
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon table grind pepper
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup crushed panko breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil, for greasing
Curry Mayo Sauce, for serving, recipe follows
Hamburger buns, buttered and toasted
Asian Slaw, for serving, recipe follows
4 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup Thai curry paste
1/4 tablespoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Juice of 1 1/2 limes
3 1/2 ounces rice wine vinegar
3 ounces ponzu sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 tablespoon salt
Pinch black pepper
Juice of 3 limes
2 seedless cucumbers, peeled, seeded and julienned
1 red bell pepper, julienned
1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
1/2 head red cabbage, shredded

Steps:

  • Combine the diced salmon with the ginger, scallions, salt, pepper and egg in a mixing bowl and mix well. Form the salmon into 4 equal patties, and coat the tops and bottoms with the crushed breadcrumbs.
  • Lightly oil a grill or griddle over medium heat. You will want to cook a small portion of the mixture to test for seasoning and then adjust with salt and pepper, as needed. Cook the patties, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Slather 1 ounce of the Curry Mayo Sauce on the bottom bun, and top with the salmon burger, Asian Slaw and top bun and serve.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, curry paste, salt, cayenne and lime juice in a mixing bowl and mix well. Taste for acid and seasoning, and adjust with more salt and lime juice, if needed.
  • It is best to make the slaw ahead of time and let sit for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to really blend together.
  • Combine the rice wine vinegar, ponzu, sugar, salt, pepper, lime juice, cucumbers, peppers and cabbages in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Taste for acid and seasoning and adjust with lime and salt, if needed.

ASIAN SALMON BURGERS WITH WASABI MAYO



Asian Salmon Burgers with Wasabi Mayo image

These Asian-inspired salmon burgers are made with green onions, panko bread crumbs and pickled-ginger juice and topped with wasabi-spiked mayo.

Provided by My Food and Family

Categories     Home

Yield EMPTY

Number Of Ingredients 15

For Salmon Burgers
2 lb. salmon fillets, skinned and boned
1-3/4 cups panko bread crumbs, divided plus more if needed
1 bunch green onions, washed
1/4 cup KRAFT Real Mayo
1 Tbsp. pickling liquid from a jar of pickled ginger (Gari)
oil (canola, peanut, or vegetable) for pan frying
For Wasabi Mayonnaise
1/2 cup KRAFT Real Mayo
1 to 3 Tbsp. wasabi paste, to taste
whole wheat hamburger buns, toasted or tender lettuce leaves (like butter or red leaf lettuce)
Toppings
Asian pickled carrots
Japanese cucumber salad
pickled ginger

Steps:

  • For Salmon Burgers:
  • Cut the salmon into 2-inch chunks and put into the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse until the fish is broken down into a chunky puree. It should still have pebble-sized pieces (about ¼-inch) in it. Scrape into a bowl.
  • Cut the root end from the green onions, slice in half lengthwise, turn them 90° and slice them very thinly. Put this into the bowl with the salmon, ½ cup of the panko bread crumbs, mayo, and pickled ginger liquid. Mix until uniform.
  • Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap or parchment paper. Divide the salmon mixture into 8 mounds and form those mounds into patties that are ¾-inch thick. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 8 hours before cooking.
  • Pour the remaining panko bread crumbs onto a plate. Gently lift and place each salmon patty on the bread crumbs, press down lightly to help the panko stick, flip the patties over and repeat.
  • Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. When it is very hot, add about 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan and swirl it to coat.
  • Ease the panko crusted patties into the pan. A 12-inch pan should hold 4 patties at a time and still give you room to maneuver the spatula when it comes time to flip them. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the first side is deep golden brown. Carefully flip the patties using a wide spatula. Be cautious because the oil will want to splatter. Fry the second side for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown and firm around the outer edges. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate or platter. Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan and repeat until you have fried all of the salmon burgers.
  • For Wasabi Mayo:
  • Put the mayo in a small bowl and use a fork or small whisk to stir in the wasabi paste, starting with 1 tablespoon. Taste the mayo and adjust with more wasabi if you want a stronger flavor.
  • To Serve the Salmon Burgers:
  • If you're watching how much bread you eat, serve the Salmon Burgers on a tender lettuce leaf topped with a dollop of the Wasabi Mayo and any other optional toppings you'd like. If you want to eat it burger-style, put a patty on top of a toasted whole wheat bun, spread some wasabi mayo over the burger and top as desired.

1 lb skinless salmon fillet (cut into chunks)
1/4 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1 egg
2 garlic cloves (chopped)
2 teaspoons reduced sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon dark sesame oil
2 scallions, chopped
4 tablespoons ginger
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
4 whole grain buns, toasted
1/4 cup Baby Spinach

Tips:

  • To ensure that the salmon burgers are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145°F (63°C).
  • These salmon burgers can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days before cooking. Simply form the patties and place them on a baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
  • If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs. However, panko breadcrumbs will give the burgers a lighter and crispier texture.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the salmon patties, such as grated carrots, zucchini, or bell peppers.
  • Serve the salmon burgers with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, avocado, and tartar sauce.
