Here is a great Recipe for Salmon Burgers with a bit of a bite!

I found it on the internet on elanaspantry.com.

Salmon Wasabi Burgers

Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1 pound skinless salmon filet
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced
• ¼ cup fresh scallions, finely chopped
• ¼ cup fresh cilantro, minced
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
• ½ cup blanched almond flour (not almond meal)
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• ¼ cup wasabi powder (or one tube of paste)
• 1 tablespoon water
• coconut oil for frying

Instructions

1. Rinse salmon, pat dry, and cut into ¼ inch cubes.
2. In a large bowl, combine salmon, ginger, scallions, cilantro, eggs, lime juice, almond flour, and salt
3. In a small bowl, combine wasabi powder and water to form a paste. The first time I made this I used 1/2 tube of paste and the flavour was very delicate. You could use the whole tube.
4. Mix wasabi paste into salmon mixture
5. Form batter into 2-inch patties with your hands
6. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat
7. Sauté patties in batches until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes per side
8. Serve as a main with a salad or on a bun. I have had both.
