Ingredients

• White fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock) - 300 grams
• Almond flour - 50 grams
• Parmesan cheese, grated - 30 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Garlic, minced - 2 cloves

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a food processor, add the white fish fillets, almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture is well combined but still slightly chunky.
3. Form the fish mixture into two burger patties.
