Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground pork
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (optional)
- 1 cup shredded carrot
- 1 cup shredded daikon radish
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine ground pork, panko breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, fish sauce, ground ginger, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
- Form the mixture into four equal patties.
- Heat a skillet or grill to medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
- While the burgers cook, prepare the pickled vegetables: In a small bowl, mix shredded carrot, shredded daikon radish, rice vinegar, and sugar. Let sit for at least 10 minutes.
- Mix mayonnaise and sriracha (if using) in a separate small bowl.
- Lightly toast the hamburger buns.
- Assemble the burgers: Spread the spicy mayonnaise on both halves of the bun. Place a cooked pork patty on the bottom bun. Top with pickled vegetables, cilantro leaves, and jalapeño slices. Place the top bun on the burger.
Notes
- You can substitute ground chicken or turkey for the ground pork.
- Adjust the amount of sriracha to control the spice level.
