Ingredients

Servings

Burger:

  • 250 ground pork
  • 2 pork sausage 3 sausages, removed from casings
  • 1 onion small, finely chopped
  • 1 green apple peeled and grated
  • 7 sage about 1 Tbsp chopped, leaves
  • Pinch salt
  • ¼ tsp white pepper
  • ½ Tbsp parsley finely chopped
  • ¼ cup breadcrumbs
  • olive oil additional, for frying burgers
  • 4 burger bun with sesame seed
  • butter for buttering buns
  • mayonnaise Hellmann's brand, for spreading on buns

Crunchy chipotle slaw with fennel & apple:

  • 2 cups cabbage finely shredded
  • 1 fennel bulb small, finely sliced on mandolin, about 1 cup
  • ½ green apple cut into matchstick julienne strips
  • Coriander leaves optional, a few stalks, leaves removed
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise Hellmann's brand
  • 1 chipotle in adobo sauce add less if it's very spicy, 2 tsp, or any other hot sauce
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • lemon juice from ¼ lemon

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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).
  3. 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.
  4. 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).
  5. 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.
  6. Mix up the mayonnaise with the chipotle/hot sauce and lemon juice and gently toss the dressing through the slaw to coat.
  7. Slice the burger buns in half and butter each side. Grill these on the buttered side until the bread starts to caramelize.
  8. Assemble the burgers with a generous mound of slaw. You almost can't get enough here, and then tuck in. It can get messy.
