• Cover and refridgerate for at least 10 minutes or up to 4 hours.
• Spray a skillet lightly with Pam and cook the burger over high heat for 1 minute, flip the burger, lower temperature to medium heat, cover pan and cook slowly on one side for 5 minutes.
• If you are adding mushrooms add them to the pan now.

• I really recommend adding some Mango chutney on the burger.

• Place on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until digital instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into centre of each reads 160°F (71°C), about 10 minutes.
• Grilled Red Onions: Meanwhile, peel onion; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. Insert small skewer horizontally through each slice to keep rings in place. Brush both sides with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place onion on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until softened, about 10 minutes. Serve with lettuce on burgers in buns.

CURRY PORK BURGERS WITH SPICY KETCHUP

Steps:

• Season the pork. In a large bowl gently combine the pork, coriander, curry powder, Worcestershire, cayenne pepper, scallions, garlic, salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Make 4 to 6 even patties. If refrigerating, allow to come to room temperature before cooking.
• Make the spicy ketchup. In a small saucepan over low heat, lightly cook the red pepper flakes and garlic in butter until tender and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the ketchup, cayenne pepper and scallion. Cook another 5 minutes. Remove from heat, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and serve at room temperature.
• Cook the burgers. Preheat the oven to 175 to 200 degrees F. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and coat with oil. Sear the patties until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. When you flip the burgers, put the buns in the oven to toast. Cook the burgers in batches, if necessary.
• Assemble the burgers. Place a burger on each bun and top with lettuce, tomato, and a generous squirt of the spicy ketchup.
