CURRY PORK BURGERS WITH SPICY KETCHUP
Curry ketchup is a street food condiment I was introduced to on the streets of Bad Kreuznach, Germany. It's not as thick as what we're familiar with in the U.S., is a bit sweeter, and has a nice undertone of curry. I squirted it on bratwurst and French fries at the stands there called schnell imbiss, which translates as "fast food." Even at ten years old, I found the flavor combination of curry and ketchup pretty interesting. I now order bottles online and sometimes even make my own version. I love the marriage of the two flavors that complement each other like they are staring across the center of a color wheel. I've taken that contrasting flavor inspiration and put the curry in the burger, then topped it with an easy-to-make, spicy ketchup. Even the "only salt and pepper go in my burger" purists have tried this version and loved it. Makes 6

Steps:
- Season the pork. In a large bowl gently combine the pork, coriander, curry powder, Worcestershire, cayenne pepper, scallions, garlic, salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Make 4 to 6 even patties. If refrigerating, allow to come to room temperature before cooking.
- Make the spicy ketchup. In a small saucepan over low heat, lightly cook the red pepper flakes and garlic in butter until tender and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the ketchup, cayenne pepper and scallion. Cook another 5 minutes. Remove from heat, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and serve at room temperature.
- Cook the burgers. Preheat the oven to 175 to 200 degrees F. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and coat with oil. Sear the patties until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. When you flip the burgers, put the buns in the oven to toast. Cook the burgers in batches, if necessary.
- Assemble the burgers. Place a burger on each bun and top with lettuce, tomato, and a generous squirt of the spicy ketchup.
SPICY CURRY KETCHUP
This curry ketchup is a great sauce for lamb burgers or oven-baked French fries. It mixes the sweetness of ketchup with Sriracha hot sauce and a bit of curry. Goes great with lamb burgers with balsamic-caramelized onions and Gruyere.

CURRY KETCHUP PORK
This recipe is one of the easiest things you can do with pork. Tomato ketchup is already rich in flavor so this dish doesn't require much unless you want to put in more vegetables. To add something green in this dish, I've added bitter melon.

Tips for Making the Best Curry Pork Burgers with Spicy Ketchup
- Choose high-quality pork: The quality of the pork you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your burgers. Look for ground pork that is fresh and has a good amount of marbling.
- Don't overmix the meat: Overmixing the meat can make the burgers tough. Mix the meat just until it is combined.
- Shape the burgers gently: When shaping the burgers, be gentle and don't press down too hard. This will help to keep the burgers tender.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat: Cooking the burgers over medium heat will help to prevent them from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer: The best way to ensure that the burgers are cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Cook the burgers until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Make the spicy ketchup ahead of time: The spicy ketchup can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. This will save you time when you're ready to make the burgers.
