Ingredients

Serves 4
  • 500gskinless salmon fillets
  • 4spring onions, finely sliced
  • 15gdill, chopped
  • 1lemon, zest and juice
  • 1 tbspDijon mustard
  • 1egg
  • 50gbreadcrumbs
  • 2 tbspolive oil
  • fine salt
  • black pepper
  • 300gwhite cabbage, finely shredded
  • 2carrots, coarsely grated
  • 1/2red onion, thinly sliced
  • 200gGreek yoghurt
  • 1 tbspextra virgin olive oil
  • 4burger buns, split
  • 1little gem lettuce, leaves separated

Method

  1. Cut the salmon into 5mm dice by hand. A processor turns it to paste and the burgers go rubbery; chopped by hand they stay juicy and chunky. Mix in a bowl with the spring onions, dill, lemon zest, mustard, egg, breadcrumbs, a teaspoon of salt and plenty of pepper.
  2. Shape into 4 patties about 2cm thick and chill for 10 minutes so they firm up while you make the slaw.
  3. Mix the yoghurt with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Put a third of it in a bowl with the cabbage, carrots, red onion and extra virgin olive oil and toss well. Keep the rest for the buns.
  4. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the burgers for 4 minutes each side until golden and cooked through to the centre. Resist pressing them down; that squeezes the moisture out.
  5. Toast the cut sides of the buns in the pan for a minute. Build each bun with lettuce, a burger, a spoon of lemon yoghurt and a pile of slaw, with the rest of the slaw on the side.
