“I've made these over ten times and they are amazing. One of my favorite meals. Thank you so much! I've never used the lemongrass or thai basil; I've used lemon zest and cilantro. For the slaw I've used the exact recipe, a bag of cole slaw, and even romaine. Al” — a cook, 5.0★

“I love these burgers! I 've made them several times. I always double the recipe and freeze them. I usually add cilantro and mint to the burgers and the slaw too. I've also made just the slaw for salmon burgers. I have not had issue with them falling apar” — a cook, 5.0★
