Grilled Tuna Burgers With Homemade Rémoulade Recipes

GRILLED TUNA BURGERS WITH SPICY MAYO

Steps:

• Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes and egg to a large mixing bowl. Mix well, then fold in the tuna, red bell pepper and scallions. Mix well to coat everything evenly.

Refrigerate so the patties firm up and hold their shape when cooked, 15 to 20 minutes.
