Spicy Asian Pork Burgers Recipes

CURRY PORK BURGERS WITH SPICY KETCHUP

Steps:

• In a large bowl, using your hands mix together pork, coriander, curry powder, Worcestershire, cayenne, scallions and garlic, seasoning well with salt and pepper. Make 6 even patties and put in refrigerator until ready to cook. Heat a large fry pan over medium-high heat, add oil. Sear patties until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Cook in batches, if necessary. Serve inside hamburger buns topped with lettuce leaf, tomato slice and spicy ketchup.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, lightly saute garlic in butter, about 2 minutes. Add ketchup, red pepper flakes and cayenne pepper. Cook another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in scallions. Cool before serving.

SESAME PORK BURGERS WITH SWEET AND SPICY SLAW

Steps:

• Make the Slaw:
• Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, Sriracha, sugar, and 1 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Transfer about 1/4 cup dressing to a small bowl; set aside.
• Add cabbage and scallions to remaining dressing and toss to evenly coat. Season with remaining 1/2 tsp. salt. Cover and chill both the salad and dressing until ready to serve.
• Do Ahead: Dressing and slaw can be made 8 hours ahead. Keep chilled.
• Make the Burgers:
• Using your hands or a wooden spoon, mix pork, garlic, Sriracha (if using), sesame oil, fish sauce, 1/4 cup cilantro, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a large bowl until well combined.
• Shape pork mixture into 4 patties, slightly larger in diameter than English muffins (about 4").
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium. Working in batches if necessary, fry patties until browned on both sides and cooked through, 6-8 minutes.
• Spread reserved dressing on muffins. Place a patty on bottom halves. Season with salt and pepper. Pile on some slaw, pickles, and cilantro, then close muffins. Serve with remaining slaw alongside.
• Do Ahead: Patties can be made 1 day ahead. Separate with parchment if stacking. Cover and chill, or freeze up to 1 month.

THAI-STYLE PORK BURGERS WITH RED FRESNO CHILI AND CILANTRO SLAW

Steps:

• Cooking Guidelines To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures: Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) | Seafood 145° F | Chicken 165° F | Ground Beef 160° F | Ground Turkey 165° F | Ground Pork 160° F 1 Prepare the Ingredients Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Mince garlic. Coarsely chop cilantro. Slice chiles into thin rounds, removing membrane (white spiny innards) and seeds, if averse to spice. Thinly slice green onion on a bias (angle). 2 Prepare the Slaw In a large mixing bowl, add rice vinegar, sesame oil, half of the green onions, garlic, and cilantro. Whisk together to incorporate. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add slaw mix and chiles to taste (reserving some chile slices for garnish). (Chiles can pack a punch, so if you're spice averse, go easy). Let marinate for 10 minutes before serving. 3 Mix the Burger In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, soy sauce, and remaining green onions. Mix well with your hands or a spatula to incorporate. With your hands, shape the mixture into two equal-sized patties. 4 Cook the Burger In a large pan, warm 2 tsp. olive oil over medium-high heat. Season both sides of burgers with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the burgers are firm to the touch and reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees. 5 Plate the Dish Toast or warm buns in the oven, if desired. Place a bun in the middle of the plate. Top each bun with a burger. Garnish each burger with fresh chile slaw and any remaining slices of chile if desired.

ASIAN PORK BURGERS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Mix together until well combined. Divide into four equal portions and shape into patties.
• Mix together ingredients for the slaw and set aside.
• Place burgers either on a grill or a grill pan on the stovetop over medium heat. Cook for 6-7 minutes before flipping and cooking an additional 6-7 minutes. Both sides of the burger should have browned and cooked through.
• To assemble, place each burger in a bun and top with asian slaw. Serve immediately.

SPICY PORK BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix together the pork and all the seasonings, plus the peppers.
• Form into 4 patties, and set aside.
• Heat a grill pan over medium to high heat, cook for 7-8 minutes per side.
• Remove and allow to rest for 3 to 4 minutes before serving.

ASIAN STYLE PORK BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients together. I like to do this in a glass measuring cup, because it's easy to measure the mayo, then just spoon all the other ingredients in and stir. It's then easy to scoop out what you'll need for the slaw, leaving enough for your sandwiches.
• Set aside.
• If you're not using pre-packaged "slaw mix": Use a mandolin, sharp knife, or food processor to thin-slice the cabbage. Place it in a bowl, and add grated carrot, and sliced green onion.
• Using the dressing you made, top the cabbage mixture with all but 1/4 cup (60ml) of the dressing, which you need to reserve as a sandwich spread. Stir it in with the veggies, then sprinkle the 1/2 tsp salt and stir again. Refrigerate for up to 8 hours.
• In a large bowl, place the ground pork. Add the minced garlic, minced fresh ginger, Sriracha sauce, Sesame oil, hoisin sauce, Fish sauce, cilantro leaves and salt. Using your hands (or a wooden spoon if you prefer), gently combine all the ingredients together.
• Form 4 roughly equal sized patties. I like to do this by forming 4 "balls" of meat, then pressing down on each portion. You want to make sure the burgers are kind of firmly together, so they don't fall apart while cooking.
• Heat a heavy skillet (Cast-iron prefered) over Medium to Medium-High heat until hot, and drizzle about 1 tsp vegetable or olive oil. Set the heat at Medium, and cook the patties 6-8 minutes until done. Internal temp should be 160F.
• Slather buns with remaining sauce. Add the pork patties and top with slaw and sweet pickles if you like.

SPICY PORK BURGERS WITH BLACK BEANS AND CHUTNEY

Steps:

• For the dried fruit chutney: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it begins to smoke lightly, then add the onions and garlic and sprinkle with the salt and red pepper flakes. Cook until the onions and garlic become translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the vinegar, sugar, cloves and cinnamon stick. Stir to blend and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes to let the vinegar mellow. Add the raisins, apricots, figs, cognac and 1 cup water and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool.
• For the black beans: Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add the onions, oil and a generous pinch of salt. Add the sugar and cook until the onions are caramelized and tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and beans and cook so the ingredients meld together, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
• For the spicy pork burgers: Break up the meat in a medium bowl and spread it up on the sides so that the seasoning can really permeate the meat. Add the sherry, soy sauce, Worcestershire and cayenne. Mix with your hands to make sure all of the flavors get integrated but do not overmix. (The more you work the meat, the tougher the burger.) Form the meat into 4 even patties about 3/4-inch thick.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet and add the oil. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, remove the skillet from the heat and arrange the patties in a single layer in the skillet. Return the skillet to the heat and cook, undisturbed, for 5 to 6 minutes. Rotate the patties a quarter turn and cook until cooked through, 3 to 5 more minutes. Use a metal spatula to flip the patties on their second sides and cook for an additional 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and place 2 slices of American cheese on each patty. Let the patties rest in the skillet so the cheese melts.
• Arrange the roll bottoms on a work surface and top with lettuce. Top the lettuce with the patties, spoon some of the chutney and black beans on each and finish with the roll tops.
