We love Fish in all kind of different ways. We love it grilled, curry, fried, steamed, baked. Any which way, we love it. Since we cannot eat non halal food outside, it refrains us from eating Chicken or meat burgers outside and I ended up making my own in different styles. Yes! I make around 4-5 different kinds of Chicken and meat burgers at home. Now, you know even if you know how to cook 1000 different kinds of meals, you kids would still want something more and you have to super creative at times to satisfy those little minds.
So, after completing my creative journey on satisfying the “not so little” tummies with my chicken and meat burgers, the demand came on to Fish Burgers. My first question was that why would I make something that we can easily eat outside to which the reply was an explanation…simple one and harsh too… It’s a time to stay at home and we aren’t going out to eat either. And, of course that was enough to convince me into making Fish Burgers.
I used Tilapia Fish fillets. You can use any other fish fillet of your choice. Going for a fish which does not have a very overpowering flavor is always better when you marinate and roll it in flour. I personally feel that any fish like Salmon or Kingfish will only taste nice in a burger if you spice them up and fry them without rolling them in flour. It’s my personal outlook and you can always choose to differ. I mixed in the spices with the fillet, rolled them in a mix of flour and corn starch powder. Later pan fried them. Once cooked and crunchy from both sides. Spread some butter on both half of the butter and just heat them a little on a pan. Toasting the burger is optional, so you can always omit this step. You can also grill place them in between burger buns with Onion, Tomato, Lettuce, garlic mayo sauce and Hot sauce. Sprinkle some dry parmesan cheese powder.
These burgers don’t take too much time and very satisfying as well. You can also serve the fish fillet with the veggie only without the burger as a fish salad.
