Instructions
- Drain any juice from the salmon can.
- Gently mix 1 TB olive oil, along with the rest of the salmon burger ingredients together with a fork. Mix until incorporated, and then stop. (Do not use a blender or food processor for this step, because you don’t want to purée the fish.)
- Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts, and then use your hands to form 4 patties.
- Chill the patties in the fridge for at least 10 minutes.
- While fish cakes chill, add the yogurt, avocado, and lemon juice to a blender and blend until smooth.Alternatively, mash all the ingredients with a fork until smooth. (This version will be less creamy, but still delicious.)
- Heat remaining 1 TB olive oil in a heavy pan. Sear the fish cakes for about 4 minutes per side, or until golden.
- Serve burgers while still hot, along with the avocado sauce and any desired bread or toppings.
- Leftovers:Store leftover patties in the fridge, and use within 1-2 days. Sauce will not keep well, and should be used immediately.Make Ahead + Freeze: Let salmon patties cool, and then wrap individually and tightly with wax paper, plastic wrap, or foil. Store in an air-tight container in the freezer, and use within three months. To reheat, simply unwrap the patties and cook again. Cook until golden. Patties may take 2-3 minutes longer to cook from frozen.Sauce should not be frozen.
