Keto Salmon Burgers with Sugar Free Spicy Coleslaw (Low Carb)

These Keto Salmon Burgers with Spicy Coleslaw are a delicious speedy low-carb dinner option. High in omega3 essential fatty acids and healthy, nutritious fats. I chose to serve them in lettuce cups to keep the carbs low and the hands on cooking time down but they’re also delicious in a keto bun
if you prefer.

Ingredients

Salmon Burgers

  • 4 salmon fillets (or canned boneless and skinned salmon) (500g)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon ginger grated (20g)
  • 2 spring onions green part (10g)
  • 2 tablespoon fresh coriander chopped (or parsley) (8g)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper cracked
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper (or chili flakes, to taste)

Spicy Coleslaw

  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage (70g)
  • 1 cup shredded white cabbage (70g)
  • 1 medium stick celery (40g)
  • 4 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Franks hot sauce (or sriracha, to taste) (4g)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

To Fry

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (or ghee or coconut oil)

To Serve

  • 8 Boston lettuce leaves (70g)

Instructions

To Make the Burgers

  • Remove skin from salmon using a sharp knife. Dice the salmon into 2 inch chunks and place in the freezer for about 20 minutes (not so they freeze but so they firm up a bit). Place in a food processor and pulse. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Place the rest of ingredients for the Salmon Burgers in a food processor and process until smooth.
  • If using canned salmon, make sure you’ve removed the bones and skin and stir through with the spice mix. Shape into 4 burgers using your hands or use a burger press.

To Make the Coleslaw

  • Finely shred the cabbage and celery using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife. Mix with the mayo, hot sauce, seasoning, olive oil and sesame seeds.

To Cook the Burgers

  • Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Fry the Salmon Burgers on medium heat for about 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and crisp on the outside. Transfer to a piece of paper towel to soak up any excess fat.

To Serve

  • Serve the burgers in lettuce leaves and top with slaw. Or place the slaw on the bottom if you prefer.

Storage

  • Once cooked can be stored in an airtight Tupperware in the fridge for up to 3 days. Salmon burgers can be frozen for up to 2 months.
