Place tuna in food processor and pulse just until finely chopped, 4 to 5 times. Combine tuna, cilantro, ginger, lemongrass, garlic, and fish sauce in large bowl; divide mixture into 4 equal balls and gently press each ball into patty about 3½ inches in diameter.

Notes

Lemongrass stalks are very fibrous, so be sure to only use the inner core of the stalk and mince it. You can also use 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest in its place.
