Ingredients
Burger:
- 250 gms pork mince
- 2 – 3 of your favourite pork sausages removed from the casings
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 1 green apple peeled and grated
- 7 sage leaves about 1 Tbsp chopped
- Pinch of salt
- ¼ tsp white pepper
- ½ Tbsp finely chopped parsley
- ¼ cup breadcrumbs
- additional olive oil to fry the burgers
- 4 sesame seed burger buns
- butter to butter the buns
- Hellmann's mayo to spread on the buns
Crunchy chipotle slaw with fennel & apple:
- 2 cups finely shredded cabbage
- 1 small fennel bulb finely sliced on a mandolin (about 1 cup
- ½ green apple cut into matchstick julienne strips
- a few stalks of coriander leaves removed optional
- ¼ cup Hellmann’s mayonnaise
- 1 – 2 tsp of chipotle in adobo sauce or any other hot sauce you like add less if it's very spicy
- salt & pepper
- Juice from ¼ lemon
Instructions
- To make the burgers, heat a splash of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and gently fry the onion and apple until softened. About 5 minutes. Add the chopped-up sage and cook very briefly.
- Add this to the pork mince, sausage meat, and other ingredients and roll into 3 – 5 burger patties. Remember to season them well with salt and pepper (I like white pepper here but black pepper is also fine).
- A top tip to check the seasoning of a burger is to roll an acorn size ball and cook that off first. Test this and adjust seasoning.
- Wipe down the pan, and add another splash of olive oil. Fry the burgers over a medium heat until cooked through (If you are making 3 larger burgers, finish them off in an oven preheated to 180C / 350F for about 15 minutes).
- Make the slaw immediately before serving to retain the crunch. Combine all the slaw ingredients in a bowl, adding a few chopped up sprigs of the fennel tops.
- Mix up the mayonnaise with the chipotle/hot sauce and lemon juice and gently toss the dressing through the slaw to coat.
- Slice the burger buns in half and butter each side. Grill these on the buttered side until the bread starts to caramelize.
- Assemble the burgers with a generous mound of slaw. You almost can't get enough here, and then tuck in. It can get messy.
