Categories     condiment

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 pound sushi-grade tuna, finely diced
1/4 cup finely diced red bell pepper
2 scallions, finely sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil, for cooking
4 seeded hamburger buns, split
Spicy Sriracha Mayo, recipe follows
4 medium butter lettuce leaves
1 beefsteak or heirloom tomato, sliced
Dry Riesling, for serving
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 tablespoons Sriracha
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon honey
4 grilled scallions, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

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.

OPEN-FACED SEARED TUNA BURGER WITH WASABI MAYONNAISE



Open-Faced Seared Tuna Burger with Wasabi Mayonnaise image

These tuna burgers are best eaten very rare, so buy your sushi-quality tuna from a reputable fishmonger. The fish should be glistening and jewel-toned, with no trace of cloudiness. Wasabi paste, or Japanese horseradish, is distinctive not only for its bright green color, but also for its head-rushing heat. Combined with a little mayonnaise and low-fat sour cream, it becomes a perfect condiment for the tuna burgers. Wasabi is available in powder form, too, and can be mixed into a paste with a little water.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds sushi-quality tuna, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 teaspoons wasabi paste
4 sourdough rolls, bottoms only

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the tuna, salt and pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, and combine gently. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape each into a patty. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, and wasabi paste. Stir to combine thoroughly and set aside.
  • Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the tuna burgers and sear for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the heat, add the soy sauce, return to the heat, and sear for 1 more minute per side.
  • Place each on the bottom half of each roll, top with a tablespoon of dressing, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tuna. Opt for tuna steaks or fillets that are fresh, firm, and have a deep red color. Avoid tuna that is brown or has a grayish tint, as this may indicate that it is not fresh.
  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh herbs, vegetables, and mayonnaise will make your tuna burgers taste their best. Avoid using store-bought mayonnaise, as it often contains preservatives and other additives that can alter the taste of the burgers.
  • Don't overcook the tuna. Tuna burgers should be cooked just until they are opaque in the center. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
  • Serve the tuna burgers immediately. Tuna burgers are best served hot off the grill or pan. If you need to make them ahead of time, you can cook them and then reheat them gently in the oven or microwave.

Conclusion:

Tuna burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a variety of different tuna burger recipes that your whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give tuna burgers a try!
