Call these Salmon Burgers or salmon patties, whichever you want them to go by are handmade fish patties made from fresh chunky pieces of salmon and used for burgers. These salmon burgers come together quickly and are sandwiched between buns, cheese, and a quick and easy tarter sauce made from scratch.

These salmon burgers are so versatile as you can serve these with an avocado salsa instead of tartar sauce and substitute the bread called for, so many different ways (breadcrumbs, croutons soaked in water, a slice of bread, crackers soaked in milk and etc….) I wouldn’t omit the herbs because I do think that enhances the appearance as well as the chunky fish pieces (it gives a nice texture!) This recipe makes six burgers and you can totally ditch the buns and serve on top of salads or alone with some veggies and tartar sauce for a leaner approach. A must make fish patty to try, especially since summer is approaching!

    Can you use canned salmon?

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      Hi Dana, I highly recommend the fresh salmon, since you can cube it, it just creates a fabulous texture, canned is already cooked and will be drier and flakier (kind of like making burgers with cooked beef if that makes sense.)

    • Gerri Fessler

    I am assuming that you are using uncooked salmon…but I be don’t want to assume too much. This recipe looks great. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks,. Gerri

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      Hi Gerri, the recipe calls for fresh salmon so you’re correct, uncooked salmon was used.

    • Al
