1 1/2 pounds yellowfin tuna, cut into 1-inch pieces, chilled
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons minced ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 cup grated carrot (from 1 carrot)

TUNA MUSHROOM BURGERS



Tuna Mushroom Burgers image

I have always had a weakness for tuna burgers, and I like these even more than the classic all-fish burger because the mushrooms assure a moist texture. They are inspired by a recipe by Clifford Pleau, which was presented at the 2015 Worlds of Healthy Flavors conference. If you use sushi-grade tuna for these burgers you might want to just sear them on each side to get a rare, sushi-like interior. If you use ahi tuna, you could still cook them rare, or cook them for about 2 minutes on each side. This will produce a burger that is more well done but still nice and moist. The burgers are delicious either way. Don't use a food processor to chop the tuna; finely chop with a knife or a cleaver. The texture will be too pasty if you use a food processor. I found that the punch of the wasabi paste dissipated when the burgers were cooked, so add more if desired.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, burgers, vegetables, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 ounces sushi grade or ahi tuna, trimmed of blood lines
10 ounces roasted mushroom mix
1 to 2 teaspoons wasabi paste (more to taste)
2 tablespoons capers, coarsely chopped if desired
Salt to taste
black pepper to taste
1 small shallot, finely minced
Oil for the pan (no more than 1 tablespoon)

Steps:

  • Chop tuna very fine. I find a cleaver works well for this. It should be like ground beef and it is best to do this by hand because a food processor will make the fish pasty.
  • In a large bowl mix together all of the ingredients except the oil, and season to taste. Combine well. Shape 4 patties with moistened hands, or shape by setting a 2-1/2- or 3-inch ring on a plate and filling the ring with the mixture. Carefully remove the ring.
  • Heat a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and brush lightly with olive oil or add a small amount to the pan and swirl the pan. Carefully add burgers to pan, taking care not to crowd them. Turn heat to medium and either sear for only 30 seconds to a minute on each side, or cook 2 minutes on each side if desired. Remove to a plate and serve, on buns if desired. Chef Pleau serves these with "avocado crema," a blend of avocado, yogurt, lime juice, cilantro and wasabi powder.

Tips:

  • When creating the tuna mixture, thoroughly drain the tuna to prevent the burgers from becoming soggy.
  • Use high-quality canned tuna for the best flavor. Try to choose tuna packed in olive oil or water, rather than brine.
  • Feel free to customize the ingredients in the tuna mixture to suit your taste preferences. Add more or less mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, or seasonings as desired.
  • Form the tuna mixture into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick. This will help them cook evenly.
  • To prevent the burgers from sticking to the pan, make sure the skillet is well-oiled or greased before cooking.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat to prevent them from burning. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the tuna pizza burgers immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include marinara sauce, melted cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
