Best Salmon Burgers With Tartare Mayo Recipes

PERFECT SALMON BURGERS

Steps:

• Cut three-quarters of the salmon into 1/4-inch pieces. Put in a large bowl. Cut the rest of the salmon into chunks; transfer the chunks to a food processor along with the mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest and cayenne. Pulse to make a paste. Add the pureed salmon mixture to the bowl with the diced salmon. Add the scallions, 2 tablespoons panko, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste. Gently mix until just combined.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with olive oil. Divide the salmon mixture into 4 mounds on the parchment paper. With damp hands, pat into 4-inch-wide, 3/4-inch-thick patties. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Spread the remaining 1 cup panko on a plate. Press both sides of the salmon patties in the panko. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties (in batches if necessary) and cook until browned on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes, adjusting the heat if necessary. Turn and cook until the other side is browned and the patties feel springy in the center, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; season with salt.
• Meanwhile, arrange the buns, cut-side up, on a broiler pan and broil until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve the patties on the buns; top with tartar sauce and arugula.

SALMON BURGERS WITH TARTAR MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, tomatoes, parsley, capers, lemon juice and tabasco. Set aside. (This can be prepared in advance and cover it. It will be good up to 6 hours in the fridge).
• Put salmon fillet, skin side down, on a cutting board. Beginning by the tight side, with a knife, do a light incision between the skin and the flesh, to be able to hold the skin. Holding the skin firmly and putting the knife down and inclined, pull on the skin from the exterior in a movement of backwards and forwards. Cut the salmons in pieces.
• In food processor, mix salmon, 1/4 cup of the reserved tartar mayonnaise, onion, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper until salmon is finely chopped. Shape the mixture in 4 burgers of 3/4 inch thickness. (You can prepare the burgers in advance and put in an hermetic container, separating them with wax paper between each. They will be good up to the next day in the fridge).
• Set the barbecue to medium heat. Put the salmon burgers on an oiled grill and close the cover. Cook for about 10 minutes or until golden (flip them at mid-cooking).
• Meanwhile, put the slices of bread on the grill of the barbecue and cook 3 minutes or until lightly crispy (flip at mid-cooking). Put 4 slices of bread on a work surface. Garnish each one with a lettuce leaf, then with the salmon burger and remaining of tartar mayonnaise (divided in the 4). Cover with the other slices of bread.

SALMON BURGERS WITH CREAMY TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Place shallot, mustard, one-fourth (4 ounces) of the salmon, 1 tablespoon of the capers, 1 tablespoon of the dill, 1 tablespoon of the tarragon, and 1 teaspoon of the lemon zest in a food processor. Pulse until mixture is mostly smooth, 5 or 6 pulses, stopping to scrape down sides as needed using a spatula. Add remaining 12 ounces salmon to food processor; pulse until salmon is chopped into about ¼-inch pieces and well combined with pureed salmon mixture, 5 to 6 pulses.
• Transfer mixture to a medium bowl. Add breadcrumbs, ¾ teaspoon of the salt, and ¼ teaspoon of the pepper; gently mix together using your hands. Divide mixture evenly into 4 (about 4-ounce) balls; shape each ball into a 4-inch-wide, ½-inch-thick patty. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap; chill 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir together mayonnaise, lemon juice, caper brine, and remaining 3 tablespoons capers, 1 tablespoon dill, 1 tablespoon tarragon, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Cover and chill tartar sauce until ready to use.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add salmon patties. Cook until golden, crisp on top and bottom, and a thermometer inserted into thickest portion of patties registers 145°F, about 3 minutes per side. Serve patties on toasted buns with tartar sauce, lettuce, and tomato slices.

SALMON BURGERS WITH LEMON BASIL MAYO

Steps:

• Combine salmon, onion, bread crumbs, green bell pepper, 3 cloves garlic, egg, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and salt in a large bowl; mix until evenly blended. Shape salmon mixture into eight patties.
• Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook salmon patties until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
• Whisk mayonnaise, 2 cloves garlic, basil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and lemon pepper in a bowl until well mixed. Serve mayonnaise mixture with salmon patties.

SALMON BURGERS WITH CURRY MAYO AND ASIAN SLAW

Steps:

• Combine the diced salmon with the ginger, scallions, salt, pepper and egg in a mixing bowl and mix well. Form the salmon into 4 equal patties, and coat the tops and bottoms with the crushed breadcrumbs.
• Lightly oil a grill or griddle over medium heat. You will want to cook a small portion of the mixture to test for seasoning and then adjust with salt and pepper, as needed. Cook the patties, about 2 minutes per side.
• Slather 1 ounce of the Curry Mayo Sauce on the bottom bun, and top with the salmon burger, Asian Slaw and top bun and serve.
• Combine the mayonnaise, curry paste, salt, cayenne and lime juice in a mixing bowl and mix well. Taste for acid and seasoning, and adjust with more salt and lime juice, if needed.
• It is best to make the slaw ahead of time and let sit for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to really blend together.
• Combine the rice wine vinegar, ponzu, sugar, salt, pepper, lime juice, cucumbers, peppers and cabbages in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Taste for acid and seasoning and adjust with lime and salt, if needed.

SALMON BURGERS WITH DILL TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Place salmon fillets, 3 tablespoons tartar sauce, 1 tablespoon dill, salt, and pepper in processor. Blend using on/off turns until coarsely ground. Form into two 1/2-inch-thick patties. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk 1/2 cup tartar sauce, 1 tablespoon dill, and lemon peel in medium bowl to blend. Grill rolls until toasted. Transfer to 2 plates and spread bottom halves generously with sauce. Grill patties until fish is cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Place burgers atop sauce on rolls. Top each with onion slices, 2 lettuce leaves, and top half of roll. Serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
