THAI TUNA BURGERS WITH GINGER-LEMON MAYONNAISE



Thai Tuna Burgers With Ginger-Lemon Mayonnaise image

These offbeat tuna burgers were loosely inspired by a Thai fried white fish patty called tod man pla and discovered by Food & Wine. The Thai cucumber salad stands in for pickles. Use sushi-quality tuna so you can serve the burgers medium rare. The Ginger-Lemon Mayonnaise makes one cup and can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. MAKE AHEAD: According to the author, the recipe can be prepared through Step 3 and refrigerated for up to 3 hours. Beer Recommendation: An aromatic golden lager will complement the rich tuna here. Look for one with hoppy or lemony flavors, such as Asahi Super Premium from Japan or Singha Lager from Thailand. Wine: soft, off-dry riesling.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tuna: Opt for sushi-grade or sashimi-grade tuna for the best flavor and texture. If you can't find these grades, choose tuna steaks or loins that are firm and have a鮮豔的紅色color.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your tuna burgers will taste. Look for ripe avocados, crisp cucumbers, and flavorful ginger.
  • Don't overcook the tuna: Tuna burgers are best when cooked quickly over high heat. This will help to keep them moist and juicy.
  • Use a good quality bun: The bun is an important part of any burger. Choose a bun that is sturdy enough to hold up to the tuna burger, but not so thick that it overpowers the flavor of the fish.
  • Get creative with your toppings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to topping your tuna burgers. Try sliced avocado, cucumber, tomato, or red onion. You can also add a drizzle of soy sauce, Sriracha, or mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

Tuna burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect tuna burgers every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give tuna burgers a try!
