| Ingredients | Directions |
|
1 Tbsp oil 1 medium yellow onion, diced 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp sugar |
Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over moderately low heat. Add the onions, salt, and sugar, and cook stirring occasionally until onions are soft and golden brown, 10-12 minutes. |
|
1 Lb bluefish leftovers 2 tsp finely chopped ginger 3 Tbsp chopped cilantro or parsley 1 cloves mashed garlic 1/4 cup mayo |
Remove skin from bluefish and break it up into flakes. Mix it with ginger, cilantro (or parsley), garlic, mayo, and sauteed onions. Form the mixture into 2 patties 3/4 inch thick. Refrigerate covered with plastic wrap for at least 30 minutes or as long as 24 hours. |
|
1 Tbsp oil 1/4 cup bread crumbs |
Set a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot add the oil. Pour the bread crumbs into a plate. Dredge both sides of blue fish burgers in crumbs and add them to the pan. Sauté for 4 minutes, flip using a spatula, and sauté another 4 minutes. Serve on burger buns with lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, and mayo (or aioli). |
