Easy Salmon Burgers
I recall that the basic recipe was in The Philadelphia Inquirer some time ago…
(use food processor for prep)
Ingredients
1 lb fresh salmon fillet, skinned
1 medium onion, preferably Vidalia or other sweet onion (roughly 3/4 cup, or more if you like)
4 Tablespoons mustard, preferably Dijon
optional: 1-3 Tablespoons of another flavoring such as soy, barbecue or sweet/sour sauce
optional: bread or panko crumbs, or matza meal to coat burgers
Directions
Cut salmon into chunks, roughly 1-1/2 inch each.
Cut onion into roughly 1-inch pieces, about the same as the salmon.
Place fish, onion, mustard (and sauce, if used) in a bowl, mix well.
Place about a third of the mixture at a time in processor bowl. Pulse until slightly mushy, but not paste-like.
Form patties (you should get 5-6 moderate-size burgers), dip into crumbs for a light coating.
Fry in neutral oil until golden, drain on paper towel
OR preheat oven to 325°F, place patties on baking sheet, bake for about 20 minutes. (Flip after 15 minutes if you wish.)
Serve with your favorite condiments/toppings/sides.
Patties can be frozen before or after cooking.
