  • 500 g fresh raw skinless and boneless salmon fillet, chopped
  • 1 small bunch chopped parsley
  • 2 spring onions, sliced

Directions:

  • Combine the salmon, spring onion, parsley, lemon zest, juice, egg and a little salt and pepper into a food processor. Process until just combined.
  • Remove and shape into 8 burgers.
  • Coat them lightly in almond meal if using and rest in the fridge for 15 minutes to help them firm up.
  • Cook the burgers in a pan over a low medium heat with a splash of olive oil until crisp, golden and cooked through.
  • Serve with your choice of steamed greens, roasted sweet potato or leafy greens.

Notes: These burgers keep for 2 3 days in the fridge after cooking. They are also delicious thrown into your lunchtime salad for an added protein hit.
