Ingredients

Wasabi Mayonnaise

1/3 cup (75 ml) mayonnaise
1 green onion, chopped
1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice
½ tsp (2.5 ml) wasabi paste

Fried Cod and Pickles

1 ¼ cups (190 g) unbleached all-purpose flour
¾ cup (180 ml) cold pale ale
2 tsp dill, finely chopped
¾ lb (340 g) cod fillets, cut into 4 pieces
1 large dill pickle, cut into 4 long slices
Vegetable oil, for frying

Burgers

4 slightly elongated hamburger buns, cut in half (see note)
A few Boston lettuce leaves

Preparation

Wasabi Mayonnaise

In a bowl, combine all of the ingredients. Cover and refrigerate.

Fried Cod and Pickles

Preheat the oil in a deep fryer to 350°F (180°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
Place ½ cup (75 g) of the flour in a shallow dish and set aside.
Place the remaining flour in a separate bowl. Add the pale ale and dill. Stir gently with a fork just until the batter comes together (there will still be a few lumps of flour visible). Season with salt and pepper.
Dredge two pieces of fish at a time in the flour, shaking off any excess. Coat in the batter and carefully drop into the hot oil. Watch out for splattering. Cook for 3 minutes or until the batter is golden. Let drain on the wire rack. Repeat with the remaining fish. Repeat the same set of steps with the pickle slices. Cook for 2 minutes and keep warm.

Burgers

Toast the inside of the burger buns. Spread the inside of the buns with the wasabi mayonnaise and top with a few lettuce leaves. Divide the fried cod and pickles between the burgers and finish with the tops of the buns.

Note

Two 12-inch (30 cm) submarine-style rolls will work. Cut each roll in half to get burger buns that are the perfect size for this recipe.
