By all means put these Salmon Burgers between two sides of a burger bun, but they are also really tasty served as salmon patties.
I served them with Fried Rice and Asian Greens and the one burger that was left over ended up in a burger bun the next day.
I shallow fried them in a frying pan, but the hot plate of a BBQ would work equally well.
This recipe will make around 8 burgers and take around ten minutes to prepare.
Here goes:
Salmon Burgers – Ingredients
- Approx 400 g / 14 oz tin of pink or red salmon
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 spring onions, chopped small
- 1 egg
- 1 table spoon soy sauce
- 1 table spoon grated ginger (fresh or from a jar)
- Oil for shallow frying
Salmon Burgers – Method
- Drain most of the juice from the salmon, but reserve the juice for later in case the mix is too dry
- Put the salmon into a bowl and mash with a fork
- Add the breadcrumbs and spring onions and mix some more
- Crack the egg into a separate bowl and mix together with the soy sauce and grated ginger
- Add the egg mix to the salmon mix and stir to combine
- Using your hands (I use disposable gloves) mold the mix into burger shapes (add a little of the reserved juice if the mix is too dry)
- Heat oil in a large frying pan and cook burgers over moderate heat until nicely browned on both sides
- Serve immediately
- Can also be served cold
Variations and Handy Hints
- If the mixture is too dry, add some of the reserved salmon juice
- If the mixture is too wet, add more breadcrumbs
- For a hot variation add some chili
- Sweet Chili Sauce is a nice accompaniment
- You can use fresh salmon if you wish

Something about Dinner in ten minutes makes my mouth water. Love salmon so the burgers are a tremendous inducement.
Thanks John,
I too love salmon – and have to stop myself ordering it EVERY time I go to a restaurant!
If you’re a salmon lover then you’ll love these burgers – quick, easy and as tasty as 🙂
They sound so yummy! We have a chickpea burger patty recipe that our boys love – will have to give this one a go 🙂 I like the idea of serving it with rice or having as a burger.
Salmon Burgers are my all time favorite hadn’t thought of serving them with fried rice though sounds nice.
As I am the only one that eats them I get the smaller can of salmon when making mine, I will try your delicious sounding recipe
I always like to eat salmon. Now I can make salmon burgers in just 10 minutes. It will be very delicious!
Hi Wilson,

Any left over salmon burgers are delicious served cold with a salad as well 🙂
