THE BANH MI BURGER

Steps:

• Combine beef, fish sauce, soy sauce, freshly ground black pepper, and 5-spice powder in a bowl, and mix until evenly combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled.
• Mix mayonnaise, hoisin, and Sriracha together in a small bowl for sauce. Keep chilled until needed.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Cut open rolls, remove about 1/2 of the inside crumb, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until toasted, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, using damp hands, shape beef mixture into two burger patties sized to match your rolls or buns. Keep in the refrigerator until needed.
• Combine carrots and daikon radish in a bowl. Add rice vinegar and toss to coat. Refrigerate until needed.
• Preheat a charcoal grill to high heat.

BANH MI BURGER

Steps:

• For the patties: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pork, beef and shrimp. Do not over mix as this will cause the proteins to become sticky. Portion into four 7-ounce burger patties and refrigerate for 1 hour or until ready to use.
• For the banh mi marinade: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the fish sauce and sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Add the curry paste and whisk until it's completely broken up. Add the lime juice, ginger, turmeric, garlic, lemongrass, chile, shallot, lime leaves, basil and mint and mix well.
• For the curry aioli: Combine the mayo, sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, curry powder, ginger juice, Sriracha and turmeric and whisk until smooth. Set aside and chill.
• For the nuoc mam sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk the sugar and hot water until dissolved. Add the fish sauce, vinegar, garlic and chile and mix well.
• To assemble: Preheat a grill to medium to medium-high heat. Dip the patties into the banh mi marinade and grill to desired doneness. During the grilling process, continue to dip the patties in the marinade to form a flavorful crust on the outside of the patties.
• Grill or toast the buns. Next, grill the pork loaf slices about 2 minutes on each side.
• Place a burger patty on the bottom bun followed by 2 slices pork loaf. Add 1 teaspoon curry aioli, and then the carrots and daikon. Finish with the lettuce and the top bun. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve the nuoc mam on the side as a dipping sauce.

BANH MI PORK BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat barbecue to medium heat.
• Toss together carrot, daikon, cucumber and vinegar in bowl to coat. Let stand 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain.
• Meanwhile, brush grill with oil. Grill burgers, lid down, flipping once, until grill-marked and cooked through; 14 to 15 minutes. Transfer to plate. Let rest 2 minutes.
• Spread sriracha mayo onto cut sides of buns. Top bottom halves with burgers, carrot mixture and cilantro, dividing evenly. Sandwich with top halves of buns.
• Chef's tip: Matchstick-cut is another term for julienned, and it refers to veggies that have been sliced into thin strips. The easiest way to achieve this is to shave the veggies into strips with a mandolin, then stack and slice with a knife into matchstick-size pieces.
