Tuna Burger image

The tuna burger was born in restaurant kitchens as a way of using up scraps left over from fancy cuts, but we think it's worth buying tuna just to make these.

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds fresh center-cut tuna
1 large garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, plus more for buns
1 anchovy fillet, minced
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
2 celery stalks, peeled to remove strings and minced
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup mizuna
6 buns
6 tablespoons pickled ginger
Wasabi Mayo

Steps:

  • Cut tuna into 1/4-inch chunks with a very sharp knife, trimming away any dark, bloody parts. Coarsely chop tuna by hand until it begins to hold together. Transfer to a bowl over a bowl of ice. Add garlic, olive oil, sesame oil, anchovy, basil, celery, ginger, salt, and pepper; combine well.
  • Heat grill to medium high. Form tuna into 6 patties, and place on hot grill, or chill for up to 6 hours until ready to cook. Grill from about 3 or 4 minutes per side for rare to 7 or 8 for well done. Alternatively, cook in a nonstick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat for about 2 to 3 minutes per side for rare to 5 or 6 for well done.
  • Serve with mizuna on buns brushed with sesame oil and toasted, if desired. Serve with pickled ginger and wasabi mayonnaise.

I'm not a big fan of tuna, but I thought I'd give these burgers a try. I was pleasantly surprised! They were actually really good. I especially liked the crunchy breadcrumb coating.

These tuna burgers were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more mayonnaise or avocado next time.

These tuna burgers are a great way to use up leftover tuna. They're also a healthier alternative to traditional beef burgers. I like to add a little bit of chopped celery and onion to the mixture for extra flavor.
