Preparation
For the glaze:

For the tuna burgers:
Blend red and green onions with garlic. Try to squeeze the paste with your hand as much as possible or just remove excess water. Add to a bowl. In the same bowl, add tuna, smoked tuna, parsley, dill, egg whites and pepper. Use your hands to mix all together. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Shape burgers with your hands and place in an oven tray. Drizzle a bit of olive oil and bake at 180ºC (355ºF) for 20 minutes,. If they are not golden brown after 20 minutes, heat a frying pan and sauté burgers without fat just to achieve the desired color.
Serve with honey-lemon glaze on top.
