METHOD
Burgers: Remove the skin and any pin bones from the salmon and cut into small dice. Place in a bowl with the remaining burger ingredients, season and combine well. With wet hands, shape the mixture into 4 equal patties, pressing the mixture together firmly. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up. Heat the canola and sesame oils in a non-stick sauté pan. Sprinkle the burgers with sesame seeds and cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden but only just cooked in the middle.
Mayonnaise: Combine the ingredients in a small bowl and season.
To Serve: Spread the ciabatta with mayonnaise and top with a few salad leaves and a salmon burger. Place a spoonful of mayonnaise on top and a sprinkling of sesame seeds. Serves 4
