Ingredients

• PATTY:
• 8-10 slices of prosciutto
• 8 pineapple rings
• 4 soft burger buns
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 pound ground pork
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 3 garlic clove, finely diced
• 1 tablespoon red curry paste
• 1-1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• SLAW:
• 1/2 head of iceberg lettuce, julienned
• 2 tablespoon mayo
• 2 teapoon sriracha sauce
• 2 teaspoon black sesame seeds

Preparation

Step 1

Make Slaw by mixing all ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.

In a small bowl whisk together soy and hoisin sauces.

In a medium size bowl mix all the burger ingredients with half of the soy sauce mixture (set aside the other half for later).

Form into 4 patties.

In a sauté pan over medium heat, toast prosciutto lightly on both sides 1-2 minutes. Remove to paper towel and set aside.

Preheat grill to medium-high. Oil grill plates.

Grill pineapple slices 1 minute per side and set aside.

Place pork patties on well oiled grill and cook in closed barbecue for 5 to 7 minutes per side, testing doneness with a thermometer inserted sideways into center of each patty – burgers are completely cooked when thermometer reads 160°F (71°C).

To assemble burgers: Place a scoop of Burger Slaw on each bun bottom. Place cooked patty on top of slaw and slather with remaining soy sauce mixture. Top with grilled pineapple rings and toasted prosciutto.
