Diabetic Recipe: Salmon Patties

Makes four servings 

Ingredients  

• 4 boneless, skinless salmon fillets (about 20 oz total) cut into chunks
• 2 tbsp Thai red curry paste
• Fresh root ginger, grated, thumb-sized
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1 bunch coriander, half chopped, half leaves picked
• 1 small cucumber (or half large) 
• 1 tsp vegetable oil
• 2 carrots
• 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 1 tsp sweetener

Instructions

1. Add salmon into a food processor with the curry paste, ginger, soy and chopped coriander. Pulse until roughly minced.

2. Shape the mix into four patties. Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan, then fry the burgers for 4-5 mins on each side, turning until crisp and cooked through.

3. Meanwhile, peel strips of carrot and cucumber into a bowl. Toss with the vinegar and sweetener until the sweetener has dissolved, then toss through the coriander leaves.

4. Divide the salad between four plates and serve with the patties.
