A few pinches ground cayenne pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 gingersnap cookies, ground in food processor
1/4 cup aged tamari soy sauce
1 tablespoon (1 turn around the pan in a slow drizzle) wok or vegetable oil

2 cups shredded cabbage

1 European seedless cucumber or 2 Kirby cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar or white distilled vinegar
2 rounded teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Combine the pork, cabbage, cayenne pepper, garlic, gingersnap cookies, and soy sauce in a bowl. Form mixture into patties. Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add wok or vegetable oil to the pan. Cook patties 7 minutes on each side.
  • Heat tortillas on a nonstick surface over high heat for 30 seconds on each side. Paint the tortillas with hoisin sauce, leaving a 1-inch rim from edge. Pile shredded mixed veggies in center of tortilla and top with cooked pork patty. Fold the tortilla up on all four sides and wrap burger in a square package. Invert pork pocket and cut on diagonal. Serve pockets with jasmine rice sundaes and cucumber salad.

  • Spread cucumber slices in a thin layer on double-ply paper towels. Roll paper towels up to squeeze water from sliced cucumbers. Transfer sliced cucumbers to a bowl and toss with sliced peppers.
