Hello folks welcome to myvirginkitchen a little bit of a different experience for you today
my friend matt wanted some experience filming and I obliged hopefully it will turn things
up a notch we are making some stonking pork and apple burgers with bacon you are going
to love it, if you want to have a go hit pause on the video now, write down these ingredients
lets take a look at them right now we have some pork mince straight from the butchers,
looks a bit like a brain this is half an onion that has been chopped up here is red chilli
finely chopped up some salt ground cumin for a little bit of spank this is an apple that
has been grated so I peeled that and cored it and one whole egg straight from a chickens
bum, lets get going guys you are going to love this it is gorgeous.
Alright so we have this massive bowl like so and that will help make the burger patties
all the ingredients are to one side we will dump it in there, wedding ring is coming off
it is going to get a bit sensual right now so in goes that pork mince boom straight in
there yes that does look like a brain but we will carry on, in goes that chopped onion,
quite easy right, easy steps so far, ground cumin goes on that, optional you could use
paprika to give it some smokiness or completely omit it, this is the grated apple I did soak
it in lemon water to stop it discolouring first of all and it does look a little bit
like grated cheese, one beaten egg, remember that will help hold it together, then we will
just push in the salt and the chopped chilli get that all in there, now this is going to
come together and make these amazing pork patties, so all I am doing right now is getting
hands in there and mixing all together, it may be a bit cold and wet at first but keep
mixing through really good, it smells amazing you can really smell that cumin, so there
we go that is nice and combined together now it is quite but addictive to do that if you
want to make meatballs you can just take little amounts like that and roll it up but we are
making big burgers today folks so big old clump of it start to shape it into patties
in your hand.
Do not make them too fat or you will end up with a medium rare pork burger and that is
not good so give it a little flatten on some baking parchment like so, grab a second piece
and place it on top, pressing it down and all we are going to do is place this in the
fridge for about 20 minutes to firm up as that will help the patties when it comes to
cooking.
So in the fridge they go and we will see you in just a jiffy.
The burgers are out of the fridge we have removed that top layer of baking parchment
and they are nice and firmed up so what I have here is a frying pan we are going to
put that on to a medium flame and then add a little oil to warm up the pan alright I
am going to stick it in before the burger gets too hot that way the burger will get
even more cooking time and warm through which is the most important part as I say you do
not want a medium rare burger boston is on the prowl still he is definitely smelling
the pork, there we are guys starting to warm up that oil it is going to cook through and
we will flip it soon to get it nice and coloured all over, it is time to flip this burger over
so do it nice and carefully remember that burger is hot, oh yes look at that colour
on there so again cook it all the way through so it is nice and golden brown and then we
will rest it on some kitchen towel and repeat those steps.
Our burgers are all cooked to one side we will use the residual heat in the pan to cook
our bacon rashers so good, the bacon is smelling amazing I am flipping it over right now something
tells me I am not the only one thinking it is smelling good in here right boy, oh yeah
that is one hungry pug right there.
Flip the bacon over get it as crispy as you like, then rest it on kitchen towel to one
side.
Alright so we have our toasted buns right here, lets build our burger so in comes our
pork and apple patties oh my gosh little bit of burger sauce on top burger sauce is ketchup
mixed with mayo folks, oh yes.
Stick that bacon on top like so, oh yes.
Tomato slices for the vegetarians amongst us, little bit of rocket salad to finish that
off, loving that colour contrast, slamming our lid on top, that is a burger.
