Directions:
For celery root slaw, mix celery root, tarragon, mayo, rice wine vinegar, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Refrigerate.
For the burger patties, mix chopped brook trout, chives, bread crumbs, and egg, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and form into two patties. Heat canola oil on medium high in a non-stick pan.
