Thai Tuna Burgers With Ginger Lemon Mayonnaise Recipes

Steps:

• Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes and egg to a large mixing bowl. Mix well, then fold in the tuna, red bell pepper and scallions. Mix well to coat everything evenly. Sprinkle with salt and fold in the panko breadcrumbs to lightly bind everything. Carefully form the mixture into 4 even-size patties and set on a platter. Refrigerate so the patties firm up and hold their shape when cooked, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Coat the pan with a little vegetable oil and cook the tuna patties 3 minutes per side (when done, the patties will be browned on the outside and medium-rare in the center).
• Grill the hamburger buns over high heat until well charred and crispy.
• Serve the tuna burgers slathered with the Spicy Sriracha Mayo, lettuce leaves and tomato slices on the toasted, seeded hamburger buns, paired with the dry Riesling.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Sriracha, sesame oil, lemon juice, honey and scallions in a large mixing bowl. Stir well to combine, season with salt and pepper and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Steps:

• If baking(you can also fry-instructions below), preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, mix sauce ingredients. Place 2 tbls. of the sauce in a large bowl. Cover and chill the remaining sauce in the fridge.
• To the same large bowl, add the eggs, panko, soy sauce, and Thai chili sauce. Break up the tuna and add to the bowl. Add celery, green onions and red bell pepper. Salt and pepper to taste. Stir and let stand about 10 minutes.
• Using wet hands, shape the tuna mixture into 4 patties, about 3/4" thick.
• If you want to fry them, put the oil in a skillet and heat on medium high heat. Turn down the heat to medium and add burgers and saute about 4-5 minutes each side, turning gently.
• If you bake them, place on baking sheet. Bake at 450*F. for 10-12 minutes.
• To serve, spread sandwich buns with remaining mayo/ginger sauce. Add patties to the bottom half of bun. Top with baby greens, and top buns.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, toss the cucumbers, onion, vinegar, 1 tablespoon of the sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt. Season with pepper and let stand for 1 hour at room temperature.
• In a mortar or medium bowl, using the back of a spoon, mash the ginger with the garlic, chile and remaining 1 teaspoon of sugar to a paste. Stir in the fish sauce, cilantro and basil. On a clean cutting board, thinly slice the tuna. Stack the slices and cut into thin matchsticks. Cut the matchsticks into rough cubes, then chop until the pieces are roughly 1/8 inch. Add the tuna to the ginger paste and stir until evenly combined.
• Using lightly moistened hands, shape the tuna mixture into 4 patties about 1 inch thick. Set them on a large plate lined with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the tuna burgers for 20 minutes.
• Light a grill. In a small bowl, combine the vegetable oil with the sesame oil. Lightly brush the burgers and the cut sides of the buns with oil. When the fire is medium hot, brush the grate with oil. Grill the burgers for 6 minutes, turning once, for medium rare. Move the burgers away from the heat and grill the cut sides of the buns until toasted, 1 minute.
• Combine all the Ginger-Lemon Mayonnaise ingredients in a small bowl.
• Drain the cucumber salad. Spread the Ginger-Lemon Mayonnaise on the cut sides of the buns and set the tuna burgers on the bottoms. Top with the cucumber salad and peanuts. Cover the burgers with the buns and serve.
