Paddy Field Pork Recipes

PORK PATTIES

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine all of the ingredients; mix well. Shape into six patties. Fry in a skillet until meat is browned and cooked through.

PADDY FIELD PORK

Steps:

• Put all the sugar in a wok and add half the diluted fish sauce. Heat until sugar has disappeared into the sauce, then add the rest of the fish sauce and continue over heat until a dark brown colour.
• Add the pork chunks, onion, garlic, chilli, lime leaves, pepper and lime juice. Cover and simmer on a low heat until pork has cooked (about 20 minutes), stirring occasionally.
• You can serve this over rice, but what I do is plunge rice noodles into boiling water when the pork goes into the wok, leave them for 15 minutes before draining and adding to the wok with the pork for the final 5 minutes of cooking. This gets the noodles beautifully coated with the sauce.
• Garnish dish with some chopped fresh cilantro and dried, fried onions.

BIG MOE'S PORK BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat charcoal or gas grill to medium. Combine ground pork, onion, cheeses, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce and garlic in large bowl; mix well with hands. Shape into 1-inch thick patties (9 to 12); sprinkle pepper and salt on both sides.
• If a smokier flavor is wanted, add a small handful of pecan or oak wood chips to fire about 10 minutes before putting patties on.
• Grill burgers approximately 15 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, turning every 5 minutes.

SIMPLE HOMEMADE SAUSAGE PATTIES

Steps:

• Mix together the pork, garlic, sage, thyme, fennel, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the egg white and combine thoroughly. Cover and chill for at least 15 minutes.
• To easily form the sausage patties, rinse your hands in cold water. Divide the mixture into eighths and shape each portion into a 2 1/2-inch disk. Patties can be made to this point and refrigerated or frozen until ready to use.
• Heat a skillet over high heat, and then swirl in the oil. Fry the sausages on both sides until completely cooked through and golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Drain and serve immediately with pancakes, waffles or eggs. Sausage patties can be fully cooled, wrapped, and frozen for microwave reheating.
