There is something about a burger that is so cheering. There's pork, crispy kale, and apple in this burger that has it all going on – flavour, texture and heartiness!   

Makes 2 burgers   

  

Ingredients 
300g ground pork or mince (I use a food processor to break down decent pork chops)   
½ cup fresh breadcrumbs  
4 tbsps. milk   
1 small onion finely chopped or grated  
2 tbsps. fresh herbs, chopped finely (sage, parsley, rosemary, or thyme)  
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard   
Oil for frying  
2-3 stems of kale, stem removed  
1 granny smith, cut into match sticks or very thin rounds   
Slices of beetroot  
2 burger buns  
2 tbsps. mayonnaise   
4 tsps. chill jam or similar   

  

Method 
Soak breadcrumbs in milk for 5 minutes.   
Mix pork, breadcrumbs, onion, herbs, mustard, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Massage with your hands, slapping it around a bit (this activates the proteins which helps to keep the patty together), until combined.  
Divide the mixture in half and roll each into a ball. Flatten to discs a bit larger than your burger buns. Chill for 15 minutes. 
Heat oven to 170C. Massage the kale with some oil and place on a tray. Bake for 15 minutes until crispy. Sprinkle with salt.   
To cook the patties, fry in a pan on medium heat until well browned and cooked through. Remove and keep warm. Wipe pan clean.   
Swipe split buns with mayonnaise and place cut side down in the pan. Cook until browned and heated through.   
Assemble your burgers with mayonnaise, pork patty, chilli jam, beetroot, apple and kale.
