Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 green onions, roughly chopped
1 red bell pepper, roughly chopped
One 2-inch piece ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
1 tablespoon lime zest, from 1 lime
1 pound salmon, skin removed and cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 bunch cilantro, stems chopped (about a ¼ cup) and leaves with tender stems reserved to top the burgers
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
Spicy Quick-Pickled Vegetables, recipe follows
Nonstick cooking spray
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/3 cup mayonnaise
6 oblong brioche buns, sliced in half through the middle
1 1/2 cups distilled white vinegar
2 teaspoons pickling spice
Kosher salt
2 Persian cucumbers, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 carrot, peeled and sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 shallot, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rings
1 Fresno chile, stem removed and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Add the green onion, pepper, ginger, garlic and lime zest to a 12-to-14 cup food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse until the vegetables are finely chopped. Add the salmon, panko, cilantro stems, sweet chili sauce, sesame oil and soy sauce. Pulse to roughly chop the salmon and incorporate into the vegetable mixture. The mixture should be chunky, not a paste. Lightly coat clean hands with nonstick cooking spray and form 6 patties the same shape and size as the buns, about 1/2 cup each.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to cover the pan. Add the patties and cook until the internal temperature is 145 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side.
  • Assemble the burgers: Lay buns cut side-up on a clean work surface. Spread the mayonnaise evenly inside all of the buns. Place a salmon patty on each of the bottom buns, top with desired amount of pickled vegetables and cilantro leaves. Place bun tops on and serve.
  • Add the vinegar, 1/2 cup of water, pickling spice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to a small saucepan. Over medium heat bring the mixture to a simmer, then turn off the heat and add the cucumbers, carrot, shallot and chile. Cool completely. Refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

The food processor is your friend when making these salmon burgers, but the key is to make sure the salmon isn't too smooth when processing so the patties can hold their shape.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1½ lb. boneless, skinless center-cut salmon, patted dry, cut into 2" pieces
5 scallions
1 (1") piece ginger, peeled, finely grated
1 garlic clove, finely grated
2 tablespoons plus ⅔ cup mayonnaise
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
1 tsp. toasted sesame oil
4 tsp. unseasoned rice vinegar, divided
3 medium Persian cucumbers, shaved lengthwise
½ serrano chile, very thinly sliced
1 tsp. sugar
¼ cup (or more) vegetable oil
½ cup rice flour
2 cups tender herbs (such as mint and/or cilantro)
¾ cup trimmed watercress
2 tsp. toasted sesame seeds (optional)
4 brioche buns, lightly toasted

Steps:

  • Process one third of salmon (about 8 oz.) in a food processor, scraping down sides as needed, until very smooth and paste-like. Add remaining salmon and pulse until pieces are no bigger than ¼," 4-5 times (be careful not to make it too smooth). Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Remove dark green tops from scallions and finely chop. Thinly slice white and pale green parts and set aside. Add chopped scallion greens, ginger, garlic, 2 Tbsp. mayonnaise, and 1 tsp. salt to salmon and gently mix to combine. Form mixture into 4 patties about ¾" thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Chill at least 1 hour or up to 3 hours.
  • Meanwhile, mix sesame oil, 1 tsp. vinegar, remaining ⅔ cup mayonnaise, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Toss cucumbers with a pinch of salt in another small bowl. Massage with your hands for a few minutes to soften and expel liquid; discard liquid. Add chile, sugar, and 2 tsp. vinegar and toss to coat. Cover and chill pickles until ready to assemble burgers.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Remove salmon patties from refrigerator and sprinkle with flour just to coat the outside (you won't need all of it). The patties will be a little loose but you can always pat them back together with your hands before they hit the pan. Working in batches and adding more oil in between batches if needed, cook patties until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side (watch carefully; you don't want to overcook).
  • Toss herbs, watercress, sesame seeds (if using), reserved white and pale green parts of scallions, remaining 1 tsp. vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Build burgers with buns, patties, herb mixture, pickles, and reserved sauce.
