Thai Tuna Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, thoroughly mix minced tuna, bread crumbs, green onion, carrot, ginger, cilantro, sesame oil, ketchup, soy sauce, cumin, salt, pepper, and egg. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven broiler.
• Form tuna mixture into 6 patties, and place in a broiler pan on top oven rack. Cook, uncovered, 4 minutes per side, or until easily flaked with a fork. Serve on hamburger buns with lettuce and tomato.

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:

• In a large bowl, combine the tuna, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, parsley, mustard, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well and shape the mixture into four equal patties, each about 1-inch thick.
• If you're stopping here:
• Wrap the burgers tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator or microwave for 3 to 4 minutes on LOW before cooking.
• When you're ready to eat:
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Unwrap the burgers and cook until golden brown and heated through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Serve the burgers on buns with sliced tomato and pickles.

Steps:

• Chop the tuna into small chunks, then carry on chopping until the tuna is roughly minced. Tip the tuna into a bowl and mix with the garlic, ginger, soy sauce and coriander. Shape into two burgers, place on a plate, then freeze for 10 mins to firm up.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan, then cook the burgers for 1-2 mins on each side or until done to your liking. Serve the burgers in toasted buns with lettuce, tomato and avocado.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Mix tuna, egg, bread crumbs, garlic salt, and black pepper and fold in diced tomatoes and onion. Form the mixture into 4 patties and place onto prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until burgers are golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Combine the tuna, olive oil, panko, parsley, chives, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and egg in a large bowl until evenly mixed.
• Divide the mixture into 4 portions and form patties with your hands.
• Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Place the patties in the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
• Serve on whole wheat buns with your preferred toppings.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Open and drain canned tuna.
• Mix together rest of ingredients except tuna, cheese and rolls.
• When mixing ingredients, I add one ingredient at a time, and gently but throughly mix all ingredients.
• Add tuna and gently fold together, and make firm patties.
• Heat skillet, that is sprayed with cooking spray or use 1 teaspoon of oil on bottom of pan.
• When heated on medium high heat, add each patty browning on each side for 5 minutes each.
• Add a piece of cheese on top to melt slightly.
• Open hamburger buns, and place in oven @350 degrees until toasted, (about 3/4 minutes).
• Put on buns and serve with fresh lettuce, tomato, and mustard.

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.
• Enjoy!

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.

Steps:

• Preheat a nonstick griddle or a grill pan to high heat.
• Cube tuna into bite size pieces and place in a food processor. Pulse the processor to coarse-grind the tuna; it should take on the consistency of ground beef or turkey. Transfer tuna to a bowl. Combine ground tuna with garlic, ginger, dark soy sauce, scallions, red bell pepper, sesame oil, seasoning blend and black pepper. Form 4 large patties, 1 1/2 inches thick. Drizzle patties on both sides with light-in-color oil, such as canola, safflower or peanut oil.
• Cook tuna burgers 3 minutes on each side for rare, up to 6 minutes each side for well done. Preheat broiler.
• In a medium nonstick skillet over high heat, saute fresh shiitakes for 2 or 3 minutes in 1 tablespoon light oil -- 1 turn of the pan in a slow stream. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper.
• Open up the rolls and lightly toast them under the broiler. Spread mango chutney on the bottom of each bun. Top with tuna burger, shiitakes, red leaf lettuce. Spread wasabi mustard or sweet hot mustard on bun tops and set them in place. Serve with exotic chips and pickled ginger, if desired.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl mix all ingredients together thoroughly. I noticed it is a better consistency if you mix with your hands.
• Place the extra breadcrumbs for coating on a shallow dish.
• Preheat pan on medium with Pam.
• Form a patty with your hands and coat both sides of it with breadcrumbs.
• Place the patty in a preheated fry pan.
• Repeat steps until mix is finished, usually around 6 patties.
• Cook until each side has browned and has a slight crispiness.
• I like to serve them on toasted bread with mayo, lettuce, and tomato if you like.

Steps:

• Cucumbers:.
• Combine all cucumber ingredients in a sealable plastic storage container. Chill for two hours.
• Tuna Burgers:.
• Remove any sinew from the tuna and chop into fine dice. Add the scallions, ginger, mustard, soy sauce and pepper and blend thoroughly. Do not over mix. Form into 4 equal portions and make patties. Chill for 1 hour.
• While the tuna patties are chilling, mix the wasabi powder with just enough water to make a paste. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. Add it to the mayonnaise and lime juice and chill.
• Heat a skillet and add about 2 tablespoons of the peanut oil. Cook the tuna burgers until just done, about 4 minutes per side.
• Place a piece of lettuce on the bottom of each bun and top with a few slices of cucumbers. Top with tuna burger. Then top with the bun top which has been spread liberally with Wasabi Mayonnaise. Serve with the remaining Thai Style Cucumbers on the side.
• The preparation time does not include the chilling time.

Steps:

• Combine tuna, egg, bread crumbs, onion, celery, red bell pepper, mayonnaise, hot chili sauce, chili sauce, dill, salt, pepper, hot pepper sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well. Shape into 4 patties (mixture will be very soft and delicate). Refrigerate for 30 minutes to make the patties easier to handle, if desired.
• Coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray; fry tuna patties for about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. These are fragile, so be careful when turning them.
• Serve on buns with tomato slices and lettuce leaves, if desired.
