Prepare tzatziki by adding Greek yogurt to a bowl.

Grate 1 cucumber using a coarse grater and add to the bowl.

Use paper towels to remove excess water from the grated cucumber.

Add minced garlic to the cucumber and yogurt mixture.

Squeeze in lemon juice and add a splash of olive oil.

Season with salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of fresh dill, then mix well.

Skin and cut 1.5 pounds of salmon into strips for easier handling.

Dice the salmon into very small pieces, similar to dicing an onion.

Place the diced salmon into a large bowl.

Add 1/3 cup of tzatziki to the salmon and mix until well combined.

Divide the salmon mixture into four equal portions.

Form each portion into a burger patty using your hands.

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil.

Use two spatulas to carefully place the patties into the hot skillet.

Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
