Asian Salmon Burgers with Miso Sesame Sauce

Instead of using regular buns or rolls, I used sourdough and instead of lettuce, I used daikon radish sprouts and spread some wasabi on the bread. It turned out good ;)

 

Here's the recipe:

 

1 1/4 lb Skinless salmon fillet

1 tbsp Garlic, minced

2 tbsp Dijon mustard

A handful of chopped cilantro

2 tbsp Hoisin sauce

1 green onion, finely chopped

1 tsp Cayenne

1 egg

1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs

1 tbsp Toasted sesame seeds

1 tbsp Miso

2 tbsp Rice wine vinegar

1 tbsp Honey

1 tbsp Soy sauce

 

Cut the salmon fillet into large chunks. Place the roughly diced salmon with next 8 ingredients in a food processor. Pulse to blend them well.

 

Form burger mixture into 4 equal sized burgers and place on plate covered with plastic wrap. Cover burgers with more plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

 

While burgers are chilling make sauce by whisking remaining ingredients. Chill.

 

Heat BBQ grill, Frying/Griddle pan or Broiler to high, spray with cooking spray and cook 4 minutes a side until just a touch of rare inside.

 

Top with sauce and enjoy. Excellent on a bun with lettuce, tomato, pickled ginger and a side of crispy french fries or chips.

 

Enjoy!
