Ingredients

500 grams lean pork mince
1 egg
1.5 tablespoons minced/finely chopped lemongrass
1 tablespoon grated ginger (peeled fresh ginger, or use minced ginger from a jar)
2 cloves garlic, crushed (or use 2 teaspoons minced garlic from a jar)
1 tablespoon soy sauce *use gluten free soy sauce or tamari for a gluten free recipe
2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup
3 spring onions
1/2 cup quick oats or breadcrumbs *use gluten free oats or gluten free breadcrumbs to keep this recipe gluten free - I prefer using quick oats as we have these in the pantry all the time and don't often have breadcrumbs
pinch of black pepper
extra virgin olive oil for cooking

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180C and line a large baking tray with baking paper. Set aside for now.
Prepare all of the herbs and spices - peel and grate ginger, crush the garlic, finely slice the spring onions.
Combine all of the ingredients except the olive oil (which is for cooking) in a large bowl - so, the mince, egg, quick oats/breadcrumbs, lemongrass, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, honey and a pinch of pepper. Shape into small patties; I would usually make 14-16 small patties, like large meatballs slightly flattened.
Heat a large frypan up to a high heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Cook the patties for 2 minutes on each side, until just browned, and slide onto the lined baking tray as you brown them.
Once all the patties have been slightly browned, pop the tray in the oven for approximately 10-12 minutes until the patties are cooked through.
Serve patties with rice or noodles and a fresh crunchy salad. Extras will keep in the fridge for 3 days.

Notes

*Nutrition Facts are a guide only. The nutrition calculator I use does not have the option of adding lean pork mince, only regular, so using lean mince will change the nutrition data.

*You can substitute chicken mince or turkey mince for the pork in this recipe.

*Extra patties can also be frozen - you can freeze the patties raw or cooked. Slide a bit of baking paper in between the patties so they don't stick together when frozen.

*Dressing suggestion: combine sweet chilli sauce, a touch of soy sauce and a generous squeeze of lime juice. Rice vinegar can be used in place of the lime juice. I also suggest adding some crushed peanuts or toasted cashews to your meal for some crunch!
