sub-adventures in cookery.
i made dinner tonight, and quite satisfied with the results. salmon burgers w/ mushrooms n' onion. topped with baby spinach and mustard. wrapped in romaine lettuce. possibly i may make this for the alleged pot-luck i've been trying to organize.
the burger stuff
1/4 onion, diced.
3, 6oz? cans of chopped, boneless, skinless salmon (probably will work with tuna instead.)
flax bran (yeah. its all i had on hand.)
2 eggs
2 slices of bread
the fixins.
1 can of mushrooms
olive oil
salt. pepper.
soy sauce (you know. 'cause i'm asian. you racists)
french's yellow mustard (because i'm a goddamn american. eff yeah.)
baby spinach
tear up bread, mix with chopped salmon, beaten eggs, and 1/2 of the diced onions (i may add minced garlic or garlic salt at this point next time). press into patties and dust with flax bran on both sides.
fry with olive oil over medium high heat. flip once. (i was thinking about keeping it covered so the vapors steam it, but i dunno).
sautee mushrooms and the rest of the onions with olive oil and soy sauce. season with salt and pepper. set aside to top burgers.
place burger on leafy end of the lettuce. fix as desired. fold the stem end over. eat like a mothertrucking burger.
without the mustard, they were kind of bland, but my folks like that. maybe lemon pepper in the mix, or chopped celery and chili powder? room for improvement. i half used a recipe for this, half pulled it out from behind my back. so i guess if i used the actual recipe it would be better.
