Inspired by the iconic pulled pork sandwich, this version swaps meat for juicy, flaked salmon and adds a crisp, retro-style carrot and cabbage slaw. Layer it all into a crusty oat flour bun (or your favourite homemade version), add a generous spoonful of herby sauce, and you’ve got yourself a burger that’s equal parts luxurious and feel-good.
No long intro needed here — one bite and you’ll see exactly what I mean. Light and luscious, this salmon burger delivers the comfort of a classic, with a refreshing twist.✨

Preparation
-
Finely slice the cabbage and grate the carrot. Mix with mayonnaise and sour cream, and season with salt and pepper.
-
To prep the sauce, combine the sour cream, mustard, chopped herbs, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir until smooth.
-
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Fry on a pan until just cooked through. Transfer to a plate and shred gently with a fork.
-
Now toast the bread - Warm the cut sides of the buns in a pan. Turn the slices around, place a slice of Cheddar on the bottom half, cover the pan with a lid, and heat until the cheese begins to melt.
-
Last but not least, assemble the burgers:
-
Place pickled cucumber slices on top of the melted cheese.
-
Add a generous layer of pulled salmon.
-
Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of sauce over the fish.
-
Top with the cabbage slaw.
-
Spread a thin layer of sauce on the top bun and crown your creation.
-
Repeat with the second burger — and enjoy immediately.
