sorry guys I'm Alex welcome to French
guy cooking and today we are making a
delicious Hawaiian burger with ham
leftovers to be honest ham leftovers are
not the most difficult Lefty's you could
find around think of pizzas pasta pies
really easy to make and a bit you know
expected them boring trust me I have
something way more exciting for you the
Hawaiian burger we make today is
outstanding it's ridiculous
just think of soft brioche burns smoky
sweet pork fresh pineapple prunes mint
lime sweet and sour flavors and of
course a bit of heat plus it's really
easy and it can be made in under 10
minutes all right maybe 15 let's do it
recently I made a smoked and glazed ham
it was outstanding the fat was
caramelized and the meat was tender and
juicy but after a week in the fridge
it needs some serious love if you want
to wake it up without my cutting fine
slices of the ham I know it's not that
easy so just do your best freely
I use a fellating knife or a fishing
knife because the narrow blade is really
appropriate for that job ham ready to go
with it let's make a quick and easy
barbecue sauce put a pan over a medium
heat 1/2 a cup of honey 1/2 a cup of
brown sugar a good result of apple cider
vinegar a tablespoon of chili powder
salt and pepper in a good barbecue sauce
the smoky flavor is mandatory cooking it
on the barbecue with a lid on top and
you know a few wood chips with the
embers would be a great idea if I was
not living in an apartment don't lose
faith just add a tablespoon of smoked
paprika or ground smoked tea to the
sauce sweetheart and smoky sauce ready
now let's get ready for some serious
Hawaiian vibes
I meant food vibes of course prawns will
add freshness and a real depth of flavor
to the burger
remove the shells and to devein promos
butterfly them running a shop knife
along the back remove the tiny dog
string you know removing that thing is
optional I mean you can choose to remove
the intestine or not wait a minute you
didn't know it was the intestine right
well technically it's like an inner tube
filled with fermented food residue I
guess this is not an option anymore
marinade the half prawns with finely
sliced spring onions a bit of oil
squeeze of lime finely chopped mint
leaves salt and pepper Hawaii is of
course famous for its pineapples so get
a chunk of pineapple remove the core and
cut it into fine slices it will add
freshness and juiciness to the burger
plus it might help tenderizing the pork
and the knees thanks to its powerful
enzymes we have everything we need so
let's build this Hawaiian burger start
with a soft and fresh burn the sweet
brioche burn would be perfect
spread some mayonnaise sauce on both
sides place some ham slices a dash of
our sweet and smoky and hot sauce a few
pineapple bits then go with the
marinated prawns add some finely chopped
green onions and chopped mint leaves on
top a good squeeze of lime chop it up
with the other half of the brioche bun
come on isn't it beautiful softness of
the brioche burn depth of flavor from
the hammer and the prawns freshness from
the pineapple the mint and the lime and
hotness and smokiness from the sauce
this burger simply is a blockbuster and
when you bite into it you can taste all
these layers of flavors one by one so
guys that's it I was really happy to
make that Hawaiian burger because Hawaii
really has a fascinating cuisine a
fusion cooking between American Chinese
Filipino Japanese Korean Polynesian and
Portuguese basically they are taking all
the best bits around and mixing them
into a fresh and vibrant cuisine food is
about influences what's yours
