PORK HAMBURGER

Pork Burger

There was a small restaurant called "Bahay Kubo" in the town where I grew up. We often drop by to eat pancit guisado and pork hamburgers for snacks in the afternoon then come back in the evening for some beer drinking session. Well, those were the days. I don't drink anything alcoholic anymore.

Not so long ago, a friend posted a photo in Facebook showing the burger and the pancit from that old joint. I didn't know the place still exists. As soon as I had the time, I brought my girls there so they may try that fabulous combination that is on my part -- nostalgic. Try it yourself.


Ingredients:

Patties

500 gms ground lean pork
1 medium onion
1/2 tsp garlic (finely chopped)
1 large egg (beaten)
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 tsp McCormick Pizza Seasoning (oregano, marjoram and basil)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly ground peppercorn

1/2 cup mayonnaise
6 large sesame seed buns
sliced cucumbers
sliced tomatoes
tomato catsup


Procedure:

- Mix all ingredients for the patties in a bowl
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 mins
- Divide the  mixture into 6 balls then press them into patties
- Pan-grill the patties until thoroughly cooked. About 5 mins each side.
- Serve on buns with mayonnaise topped with cucumbers and tomatoes or with coleslaw.
