Salmon Burger
Description
This Salmon Burger recipe uses cut salmon pieces mixed with breadcrumbs and fresh chopped basil for flavor and binding, along with salt and egg white to hold the patties together. The patties are shaped evenly and panfried briefly on each side to brown the exterior while maintaining moistness inside. The fish's mild flavor is complemented by the herbaceous basil and the light seasoning.
The burgers are intended to be served on hamburger buns with optional toppings including Dijon mustard, sliced dill pickles, tomato, and lettuce for freshness and crunch. This combination balances the tender fish patty with crisp and tangy condiments for a satisfying sandwich.
Using skinless fresh or leftover salmon works for the patties, and substituting canned salmon is possible. The recipe yields four burgers, making it suitable for a small family meal or casual gathering.
Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon uncooked, cut into 1 inch pieces (leftover cooked salmon or canned salmon can also be used, skinless fillets
- ½ cup panko bread crumbs plain or lemon pepper seasoned for added flavor

- 1 egg large, white
