Gallery Tuna Burgers Recipe Summary Servings: 4

Ingredients For the Burgers 1 1/2 pounds yellowfin tuna, cut into 1-inch pieces, chilled 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic 1 1/2 teaspoons minced ginger 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon coarse salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1 tablespoon vegetable oil For the Coleslaw 2 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar 1/2 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt 1/2 cup grated carrot (from 1 carrot) 1/2 cup grated radish (from 3 to 4 radishes) 1 cup cored and thinly sliced Napa cabbage (from 1/2 head cabbage) 1 scallion, thinly sliced diagonally 1/2 teaspoon black sesame seeds For Assembly 1/3 cup mayonnaise 4 braided challah rolls, split

Cook’s Notes Tuna holds together as a patty better when freshly ground than when finely chopped. If you don’t have a grinder at home, ask someone at the fish market to grind the meat on a coarse setting. These delicate patties will fall apart if cooked directly on the grill.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds yellowfin tuna, cut into 1-inch pieces, chilled 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic 1 1/2 teaspoons minced ginger 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon coarse salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 2 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar 1/2 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt 1/2 cup grated carrot (from 1 carrot) 1/2 cup grated radish (from 3 to 4 radishes) 1 cup cored and thinly sliced Napa cabbage (from 1/2 head cabbage) 1 scallion, thinly sliced diagonally 1/2 teaspoon black sesame seeds

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise 4 braided challah rolls, split

Directions

Make the burgers: Fit a food grinder with a grinding plate with about 1/4-inch holes. Grind tuna into a bowl. Add garlic, ginger, lemon zest, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix gently, and shape into four 1-inch-thick patties. Cover, and refrigerate until cold and firm, about 30 minutes.

Make the coleslaw: Whisk vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Mix carrot, radish, cabbage, scallion, and sesame seeds in a medium bowl. Toss slaw with vinegar mixture, and refrigerate up to 1 hour.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook patties to medium-rare, about 2 minutes per side. Wipe skillet clean, and return to heat. Spread mayonnaise on cut sides of roll halves, and heat, mayonnaise side down, until golden, about 1 minute. Divide burgers and slaw among bottom halves of buns. Sandwich with top halves.

Cook’s Notes Tuna holds together as a patty better when freshly ground than when finely chopped. If you don’t have a grinder at home, ask someone at the fish market to grind the meat on a coarse setting. These delicate patties will fall apart if cooked directly on the grill.
