About

These sliders take the filling of a pork dumpling and shape it into small burgers. Ground pork is seasoned the way it would be inside a gyoza: soy sauce, sesame oil, fresh ginger, green onion and garlic, with an egg and breadcrumbs to hold it together.

The mix makes twelve patties about three quarters of an inch thick, cooked in batches in a non-stick pan over medium heat for about four minutes a side, until browned and cooked through. The toppings echo the dumpling plate. A quick slaw of finely shredded cabbage and green onion dressed with rice vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper stands in for the dipping-sauce tang, and sriracha stirred into mayonnaise brings the heat. Make the slaw first and chill it. Sweet Hawaiian slider rolls finish them off and balance the salt of the soy.
