Recipe - steps
1 Set the grill to medium-high heat.
2 In a bowl, combine the green curry with the tuna chunks. Add the spring onions and the zest and juice of 1/2 lime. Finally, add the panko and mix until it forms a firm texture. Set aside.
3 Brush the vegetables with some olive oil and season with salt to taste. Grill for 5-6 minutes on both sides. Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise with the zest/juice of the other half of the lime. Set aside.
4 Divide the mixture into two equal balls. Flatten them to form burgers. Brush the burgers on both sides with olive oil and season with pepper to taste. Heat the grill pan or a skillet over medium to high heat. Grill the tuna burgers on each side for 3-4 minutes, depending on thickness. Grill the burger buns in the last minute.
5 On each bun, spread one tablespoon of lime mayonnaise. Top with a handful of arugula, distribute the grilled vegetables, and finish with the red onion. Enjoy!
