Homemade salmon burgers are more tender and flavourful than the packaged kind; this version uses split red lentils to help bind them together. They cook quickly in a skillet on the stovetop or grill - serve them on soft buns, with mayo or tartar sauce, thinly sliced cucumber, tomato, and spring greens.
