Ingredients
1 cup mayonnaise or vegan mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely chopped gherkins or cornichons
2 tablespoons capers, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper
4 skinless salmon fillets (6 ounces each), chopped into 2-inch cubes
2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning (2/3 palmful)
A handful of cracker crumbs or fine breadcrumbs
Olive oil
Sliced lettuce, tomato and red onions
4 crusty burger rolls, split
Directions
Mix together the mayo or vegan mayo with pickles, capers, dill, lemon juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.
Add the salmon to a food processor with 1/4 cup of the tartar sauce and pulse to finely chop and combine. Place the salmon mix in bowl and mix in cracker crumbs and Old Bay. Form four burgers.
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil, a thin layer, in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, for barely pink centers and 2 minutes more for fully cooked fish. Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato and onions and glue the tops in place with a slather of homemade tartar sauce. This is one of many "Yum-o!" recipes – it's good and good for you.
