• 1/3 cup (75 mL) crumbled feta cheese
• 2 tbsp (25 mL) curry paste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tsp (10 mL) minced gingerroot
• 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
• 3/4 tsp (4 mL) ground cumin
• 1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt

Preparation

Step 1

In large bowl, mix together pork, coriander, feta, curry paste, garlic, ginger, jalapeño pepper, cumin, salt and pepper. Divide into quarters; shape into burgers. Cover and refrigerate for 10 minutes or for up to 4 hours.

Place on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until digital instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into centre of each reads 160°F (71°C), about 10 minutes.

Grilled Red Onions: Meanwhile, peel onion; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. Insert small skewer horizontally through each slice to keep rings in place. Brush both sides with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Place onion on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until softened, about 10 minutes. Serve with lettuce on burgers in buns.
