Aussie Style Juicy Pork Patties / Burgers

If you want a juicy tasty burger try fresh minced pork instead of beef or half and half.

In a bowl mix 500g minced pork, 1 egg, 1 slice bread wet with enough milk to soak into slice, 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley and one of coriander, one teaspoon chopped garlic, 1 grated zucchini, 2 tablesppons cold cooked onions, salt and pepper.

Mix gently until combined. Avoid handling the meat too much, form them into round patties, and refrigerate them for 15 minutes before cooking.

(A great recipe is by Manu - https://www.manusmenu.com/aussie-burger-with-the-lot)

To cook hamburgers that stay in one piece don't have too many liquidy things in mixture.  Make sure they are cold when you put them in the pan or BBQ, AND do not keep flipping them. That will make the burger fall apart for sure.

Preheat a heavy base frypan or BBQ plate to high heat.  Brush with oil.  Cook patties for 5 minutes per side until well browned.  

Serve on a toasted burger bun or toast with fresh salad. sauce and more fried onions.  Some like to add lettuce, tomato, cucumber, bacon, pickles, cheese, beetroot and a soft fried egg - well in Australia anyhow.  That'd be a 'Burger With The Lot'. Crunchy chips on the side!  Dinner done!
