Three Blue Ducks Sticky Pork Belly Burgers with Slaw & Sriracha Mayo
SERVES: 6
Ingredients:
600 g rindless pork belly, sliced into 6–8 mm thick strips
salt flakes
6 brioche rolls
Sriracha Mayo, to serve
Glaze:
100 ml kecap manis
100 ml malt vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
100 g brown sugar
50 g smoked paprika
1 tablespoon chilli flakes
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Slaw:
¼ red cabbage, shredded
1 large beetroot, julienned using a mandoline
1 granny smith apple, julienned using a mandoline
½ bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and roughly chopped
¼ bunch coriander, leaves picked
¼ bunch mint, leaves picked and torn
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions:
Light a wood or charcoal fire, or preheat the barbecue on high.
Add all the glaze ingredients to a large bowl and mix until well combined. Add the pork, making sure the slices are well covered in the glaze, and set aside for 30 minutes or so.
When you’re ready to cook, add all the slaw ingredients to a large bowl and combine.
Once the flames have died down and the coals have a coating of white ash, grill the pork for about 2 minutes on each side. The glaze should caramelise a bit, which is when things start to get mouthwatering. Season the pork well with salt as it comes off the grill.
Slice the rolls in half and give them a light toasting on the grill.
Smear a generous amount of the sriracha mayo on the bases of the rolls. Add a good handful of slaw and then the pork. Close with the roll lid and serve immediately.
