The perfect burger recipe for a hot summer day
There's nothing quite like enjoying a good fish burger in the garden on a hot summer's day. Personally, we love a cold beer or a glass of chilled rosé wine to top off the taste of fish. If you're extra hungry, you can always add vinegar fries to your fish burger as a finishing touch.
This recipe is perfect for the whole family, young and old alike. It's a meal you can all gather around and enjoy, and it's a great way to offer fish, especially to the youngest members of the family, in a fun, delicious and crispy way.
