Pork and Apple Burgers with Creamy Slaw and Pear Sauce

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line two oven trays with baking paper. Preheat BBQ hot plate or grill to medium (if using). Prepare veggies. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on mediumhigh heat and cook apple for 2-3 minutes. Add white part of spring onion and cook a further 1 more minute, until tender. Reserve pan.
2. Place apple mix into a medium bowl and leave for about 2 minutes to cool slightly. Add pork grind and salt to bowl and mix. Using a 1/3 cup measure scoop out mix and shape into 6 patties, about 2cm-thick.
3. Return pan to a medium heat and cook patties for 3-4 minutes each side, until cooked through. Transfer to first prepared tray.
4. While patties are cooking, mix mayonnaise, sweet chilli sauce, fish sauce and vinegar together in a medium bowl. Set aside. Slice burger buns in half horizontally and place, on second prepared tray. Place buns and patties in oven for 5 minutes, until warmed through.
5. Thinly slice lettuce; grate carrot; thinly slice green part of spring onion; cut cucumber in half lengthways and thinly slice. Add to bowl with dressing and toss to combine. Season to taste.
6. To serve, spread a little extra mayonnaise onto each burger bun (if desired). Top with a patty, a slice of tomato and some creamy slaw. Dollop over pear chutney and finish with top of bun. Serve remaining creamy slaw on the side.
