Here’s a fun and easy recipe for Spicy Salmon Burgers that are packed with flavor. You’ll need canned salmon, eggs, panko breadcrumbs, lemongrass paste, red curry paste, soy sauce, brown sugar, kosher salt, garlic powder, and some olive oil for frying.
Start by draining and flaking the salmon. Then, mix it with the eggs, panko, lemongrass paste, red curry paste, soy sauce, brown sugar, salt, and garlic powder. Form this mixture into four patties.
Next, heat a bit of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown.
You can serve these burgers however you like! They’re great on buns with toppings like cilantro or sliced cucumber. You could also serve them on an Asian-style salad or shredded cabbage tossed with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and sugar.
A quick tip: the amount of moisture in the salmon can vary, so you might need to adjust the egg and panko ratios. If the mixture isn’t sticking together well, you can add another half or full egg or more panko. A little bit of mayo can also help everything stick together.
Enjoy your Spicy Salmon Burgers!
