How to Cook Pork Burgers with Apple and Potato Mash
- For the burgers, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan (skillet). Peel and finely chop the onions and fry gently until the onion is softened. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Finely chop the sage leaves. In a bowl, mix together the pork sausage meat (ground pork), sage and onion and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Shape the mixture into twelve small patties (3 per person).
- Heat a further 2 tablespoons of olive oil in the frying pan, add the patties and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until completely cooked through.
- For the mash, make Creamed Potatoes according to the recipe. Meanwhile peel, core and roughly chop the apples. Heat the butter and olive oil in a small pan, add the apples and cook, stirring regularly, over a gentle heat for 4-5 minutes until softened. Add them to the creamed potato, season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper and stir well.
- Make the Onion Gravy according to the recipe. Finally, to serve, pile the mash onto a serving plate, top with the burgers and pour a generous helping of onion gravy over the top.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
You can add a handful of freshly made breadcrumbs to the burgers if you want to "lighten" them a little.
Reviews of Pork Burgers with Apple and Potato Mash
| December 06 2014 I don't know why exactly, but this feels like a very British recipe (which suits my lot just fine!). Excellent taste and texture to the burgers and the onion gravy. The apple in the mash was a nice touch though the apple needed stewing just a bit longer than the recommended 4-5 minutes. Altogether a real nice meal. Cheap, quick to prepare. Easy, Filling. High kid approval rating!! StellaRudd (3 reviews) |
