Ingredients

Harissa Salmon Burgers

1 pound raw salmon (deboned and skin removed)
6 tablespoons almond flour + more for coating
1 large egg, whisked
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons harissa
salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons avocado oil

Harissa Aioli

2 tablespoons mayo
1 tablespoon harissa
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt, to taste

Instructions

Roughly cut salmon and add half to a food processor. Pulse 3-4 times until broken down, but still a little chucky and some texture remains. I did this in two batches to make sure it didn't get too mushy.
Add salmon to a bowl with the almond flour, egg, garlic, harissa, and salt and pepper. Mix to combine. Form into 4 equal sized patties. The mixture will be fairly wet. Coat each patty with a little more almond flour on each side.
Add oil to a large saute pan and add burgers, speading them out evenly. Cook for 3-4 mintues per side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the burgers cook, make the aioli by adding the ingredients into a small bowl and whisking to combine. Top burgers with aioli and serve with whatever you like!
