Instructions
- To prepare the tartar sauce, combine all the tartar sauce ingredients in a bowl. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.
- In a large bowl, combine the fish fillets, bread crumbs, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well and shape the mixture into 4 equal patties.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fish patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked.
- While the patties are cooking, slice the tomatoes, wash the lettuce leaves, and toast the hamburger buns.
- To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of tartar sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked fish patty, and a tomato slice. Cover with the top half of the bun.
- Serve the crispy fish burgers immediately, with extra tartar sauce on the side for those who want an extra dollop. Enjoy!
Tips
- You can use any type of white fish for this recipe, such as cod, haddock, or tilapia. Feel free to customize the tartar sauce by adding dill, parsley, or a dash of hot sauce for an extra kick.
