Steps:

• Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes and egg to a large mixing bowl. Mix well, then fold in the tuna, red bell pepper and scallions. Mix well to coat everything evenly. Sprinkle with salt and fold in the panko breadcrumbs to lightly bind everything. Carefully form the mixture into 4 even-size patties and set on a platter. Refrigerate so the patties firm up and hold their shape when cooked, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Coat the pan with a little vegetable oil and cook the tuna patties 3 minutes per side (when done, the patties will be browned on the outside and medium-rare in the center).
• Grill the hamburger buns over high heat until well charred and crispy.

TUNA MUSHROOM BURGERS

Steps:

• Chop tuna very fine. I find a cleaver works well for this. It should be like ground beef and it is best to do this by hand because a food processor will make the fish pasty.
• In a large bowl mix together all of the ingredients except the oil, and season to taste. Combine well. Shape 4 patties with moistened hands, or shape by setting a 2-1/2- or 3-inch ring on a plate and filling the ring with the mixture. Carefully remove the ring.
• Heat a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and brush lightly with olive oil or add a small amount to the pan and swirl the pan. Carefully add burgers to pan, taking care not to crowd them. Turn heat to medium and either sear for only 30 seconds to a minute on each side, or cook 2 minutes on each side if desired. Remove to a plate and serve, on buns if desired. Chef Pleau serves these with "avocado crema," a blend of avocado, yogurt, lime juice, cilantro and wasabi powder.

TUNA OR SALMON BURGERS

Steps:

• Mince the fish using a sharp knife. Do not use a food processor. Add the remaining ingredients (except the olive oil and lime wedges) and blend together with a spatula or spoon. Shape into 1/2-inch thick patties and refrigerate, if possible, for 1 hour.
• Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium-high heat. Brush with olive oil and turn the heat to medium. Sear the patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, depending on how cooked you want the interior to be. Serve on buns, if desired, with the condiments of your choice.
