ASIAN STYLE PORK BURGERS
Super-flavorful and easy-to-make, these pork burgers are flavored with fresh ginger, garlic, and sesame oil, with a touch of spicy in the mix! So delicious! Top with some creamy, spicy slaw and bread-and-butter pickles, and you're in for a treat! Inspired by and adapted from an Epicurious recipe, to which I added fresh ginger and Hoisin, both of which amp up the flavor.

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.

Steps:
- For the chutney: Bring the apples, onion, apple juice, vinegar, maple syrup and thyme to a boil over medium-high heat in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid has almost evaporated and the apples are soft, about 45 minutes. Cool and season with salt and pepper. The chutney can be made 1 day in advance.
- For the burgers: In a large bowl, combine the cheese, pancetta, apple, garlic, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper. Add the pork and mix well. Form the mixture into 6 burgers, each 4 1/2-inch in diameter and 3/4-inch thick.
- Place a grill pan over medium heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Oil the grill with vegetable oil cooking spray. Drizzle the burgers with oil. Cook on low heat until cooked through, for 10 minutes on each side. The burgers are also ready when a meat thermometer registers 160 degrees F when inserted into the side of the burgers. Allow the burgers to rest for 10 minutes.
- Place the burgers on buns and top with chutney. Serve with lettuce leaves and sliced tomatoes if desired.
