Ingredients
- 1 x 240 g pack No.1 Yellowfin Tuna Steaks
- 2 salad onions, finely chopped
- 5 cm finely grated ginger
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 Waitrose Perfectly Ripe Avocado
- ¼ x 25g pack coriander, chopped
- ½ lime, juice
- Few drops toasted sesame oil
- ½ tsp wasabi paste
- 1½ tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 brioche burger buns, split open
- ½ tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 little gem lettuce leaves, shredded
Method
Finely chop the tuna steaks, then add to a mixing bowl with the salad onions, ginger, soy and a pinch of salt. Mix well with your hands, then shape into 2 patties about 1.5cm thick and set aside.
Roughly chop the avocado and tip into a bowl. Crush with a fork, stir in the coriander, lime juice, sesame oil and a pinch of salt, then set aside. In a small bowl, mix the wasabi and mayonnaise and set aside.
Put a medium frying pan over a high heat and toast the buns, cut-side down, for 30 seconds. Set aside. Add the vegetable oil to the pan and, once hot, fry the patties for 2-3 minutes each side until cooked and opaque throughout.
To build the burgers, spread the wasabi mayonnaise over the base of each bun. Top with the lettuce, tuna patties and smashed avocado, then serve immediately.
Cook’s tip
The patties can be shaped, covered and chilled on a flat plate or tray for an hour or two before cooking.
This recipe can also be cooked on a hot barbecue, using the same cook time as on the hob.
