VIETNAMESE-STYLE BANH MI BURGERS
Got this from a Food and Wine email and posting it as I thought it looked rather interesting. Recipe by Joanne Chang. "Is this an American take on a Vietnamese classic or a Vietnamese take on an American classic? Either way, these spicy burgers topped with Tabasco-spiced mayonnaise, slivers of crunchy pickled carrots and sprigs of cilantro are wonderful." I think I'd opt to try these on the bbq instead of frying ...

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, toss the carrots with the rice vinegar and sugar and let stand for 10 minutes; drain.
- In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the Tabasco, tomato paste and garlic; season with salt and pepper.
- Form the meat into four 6-inch-long oval patties about 1 inch thick. Season with the curry powder and salt and pepper. (I think I would just mix this into the meat?).
- In a large skillet, heat the oil until shimmering. Cook patties over moderate heat, turning once, until medium (about 12 minutes).
- Meanwhile, spread the butter on the cut sides of the baguette. Set the bread cut side up on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes or until lightly toasted.
- Spread the Tabasco-spiked mayonnaise on the bread and top each baguette section with a burger patty, pickled shredded carrots, pickled jalapeno slices and cilantro springs.
- Close sandwiches and serve hot.
- Make Ahead: Mayonnaise and carrots can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
