These burgers, made with fish, are packed with fresh and spicy flavours.

What is sriracha? It’s a Thai hot sauce made from chili pepper, vinegar, and garlic with some sugar and salt. If you don’t like spice, you can reduce or eliminate the amount of sriracha.

This recipe includes healthy omega-3 fatty acids from salmon, monounsaturated fats in the olive oil, antioxidants from the chili pep- pers, lemon, and onion, and cannabinoid-rich basil and black pepper to produce an entourage effect and really stimulate your endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) — perfect!

Method:

  • Break the salmon into large chunks and place in food processor. Add the basil to the bowl. Pulse until salmon and basil are just broken down into small pieces.
