Monday Mains- Salmon Burgers & Sweet Potato Wedges


 






Hey gorgeous people! 
I made these salmon burgers on Sunday evening and I wanted to share the recipe with you all. They are probably one of the simplest and quickest healthy dinner options. I paired them with sweet potato wedges which again are simple to make but so yummy! 
Here is what you are going to need:
(Makes 4 burgers) 

2 large or 3 medium salmon fillets
1 egg
1 onion finely chopped 
1/4 cup gluten free breadcrumbs- (optional if you want less of a fishcake and more of your typical burger consistency then leave these out) 
Black pepper 
Lemon juice.


And here is the super simple recipe:

Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius 
Chop up your sweet potato into wedges, place in a roasting tin. Coat the wedges in a thin layer of oil - I use coconut oil.
Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, then place in the oven to roast for 30-40 minutes.
You will need to get the wedges out every 10 minutes or so to move them around a little bit so they cook evenly.

While your sweet potato is cooking, remove any skin from the salmon fillets and roughly chop them into smaller pieces.
Finely chop 1 onion and place this with the salmon in a food processor.
Mix on a low setting for just a few seconds.
Stir in the egg and the breadcrumbs, then season with 1/2 lemon juice and black pepper.
Lightly oil some tin foil and make your mixture into 4 patties.
Place in the oven and cook for roughly 10 minutes before flipping them over and placing them back in for another 10 minutes. 

Once they are cooked through and slightly crisping up on the outside, take them out of the oven.
Serve with vegetables of your choice, and enjoy! 

As always please let me know if you try this recipe out, if you make them please send me a pic or use #thehealthcave on instagram!
