Ingredients

  • 500 g Salmon fillets Skinless and boneless
  • 15 g Any fresh herb (dill, parsley or chives)
  • 1 Lemon Zest only
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 Medium egg
  • 4 tbsp Plain flour
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1-2 tsp Milk
  • 50 g Peas Defrosted
  • Olive oil

For the Tzatziki:

  • 300 ml Natural yoghurt
  • 1/2 Cucumber Grated
  • 1 clove Garlic Crushed

To serve:

  • Lettuce and burger buns

Instructions

  • Cut the salmon into bite sized pieces and place in a food processor.
  • Add the herbs, lemon, garlic powder, egg, flour, salt and pepper and pulse until you have a well combined mix. Don't over blend it, chop until it's JUST mixed.
  • Add the peas and stir (by hand, not blending) in enough milk until you have a thick batter.
  • Pour the oil in to a frying pan and heat.
  • Spoon the burger mix in to four evenly sized patties in the pan.
  • Cook for about 8-10 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, make the tzatziki by mixing all the ingredients together.
  • When the burgers are cooked, serve in buns with the lettuce and tomato, and the tzatziki.

Notes

Cooking: Make sure the pan is nice and hot before dolloping in the batter. This will help them to keep their shape.
Milk: Add enough milk to make a ‘dollop-able’ consistency. Not too much or they’ll be runny.
Cooked through: Make sure the burgers are cooked all the way through before serving.
Serve suggestions: Inside the bun you could serve with lettuce, tomato, gherkins, and whatever else you fancy. I’d recommend making an easy salad and some homemade chips for the easy midweek win.
