Start with the marinade. Combine the olive oil, tandoori masala seasoning, yogurt, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Next, add the cod filets and toss to coat well. Cook the filets for 2-3 minutes per side in a small skillet until cooked through and easily flaked with a fork. Take off the heat and keep warm, covered with foil. Now, prepare the salad. Finally, toast the burger buns or brioche slices and assemble the burgers. Serve immediately and enjoy!
