Thai Fish Burgers in Lettuce Cups
This little gem is taken from the Michelle Bridges "No Excuses Cookbook". The adults in the house enjoyed it, but I have to say the kids weren't too impressed (thank goodness for baked beans!) I loved the Thai flavours and the freshness of this recipe - and just 268 calories per serve!
Ingredients (serves 2)
400g white fish fillet, skin off, deboned and cut into chunks
100g green beans, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
2 spring onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons coriander, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
cooking oil spray
6 small iceberg lettuce leaves, trimmed into cups
1/2 lebanese cucumber, shredded
2 tablespoons coriander sprigs
lime wedges, to serve
Method
Using the pulse button on your food processor, process the fish very gently until just broken up. Transfer to a large bowl, add the beans, curry paste, spring onion, chopped coriander and pepper, and stir until well combined.
Lightly spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and heat on medium. Drop quarter-cups of the fish mixture into the pan to form burger patties, pressing each down lightly with the back of a spatula. Cook for 3-4 minutes each side until golden and cooked through.
Place the patties into the lettuce cups and top with the cucumber and coriander sprigs. Serve with lime wedges.
