Thai Spicy Pork Patties Recipes

THAI PORK PATTIES

Steps:

• MAKE DRESSING Place all dressing ingredients in a jar and shake to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• PREPARE SALAD INGREDIENTS Cut carrot and cucumber into matchsticks. Thinly slice spring onions and roughly chop coriander.
• MAKE PORK PATTIES Thinly slice spring onion and finely chop coriander for patties. Place in a bowl and add pork mince, sweet chilli sauce, ginger, fish sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, cornflour, salt and garlic powder. Use your hands to mix well, then shape into approximately 20 large meatballs and gently press down to form patties.
• Heat peanut oil in a large frying pan on medium (not too hot as the patties burn easily). Fry patties for approximately 4 minutes each side, until browned and fully cooked through. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
• MAKE SALAD Place noodles in a large bowl and pour boiling water over the top. Leave for 2 minutes, then drain well. Return noodles to bowl and add carrot, cucumber, sprouts and half the spring onions, coriander and peanuts. Pour dressing over the top and toss until well combined.
• SERVE Divide noodle salad between individual serving plates or bowls. Top with pork patties and sprinkle remaining spring onions, coriander and peanuts over the top.
