Fishburgers!

I cook without a measuring device most of the time. People ask me to write down some of the recipes. This is a written version of something I made up lately. Feel free to adjust from my measurements. If you try these, give me some feedback.

Fish Burgers

Source: When we used to live in Tulsa, we shopped at Bodine’s fish market fairly often. They made a fish burger from scrap that was delicious. This is a recipe I created to emulate those burgers.

Ingredients:

1 pound salmon or trout fillets diced in ¼ inch cubes

1 pound white fish fillets diced in ¼ inch cubes

(white bass, crappie, walleye, cod, halibut, sea bass)

1 large shallot minced very fine

1 to 2 teaspoons Old Bay

½ teaspoon garlic powder

3 splashes of Franks Hot Sauce

1 egg

1 heaping tablespoon minced parsley

1/3 cup panko bread crumbs

Salt and white pepper to taste

Method:

Beat the egg and combine well with all other ingredients. Form the mixture in patties and chill well to firm up the burgers, at least an hour. To cook, mix a little water with another beaten egg and dip both sides of each burger in the egg to coat. Then put the burger in more seasoned panko to make a coating. Chill until ready to cook. Heat ¼ inch of vegetable oil over medium high heat until it shimmers. Cook the burgers with minimum movement and only one turn until golden brown on each side.
