Equipment

Large mixing bowl
Measuring spoons
Grater
Skillet or grill pan
Cooking spatula

Ingredients

1 pound ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 inch fresh ginger, grated
1 tablespoon soy sauce gluten-free if necessary
1 teaspoon sesame oil
½ teaspoon fish sauce
1 green onion, thinly sliced
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon coconut oil, for frying

Optional toppings: sliced avocado, lettuce wraps, and sriracha sauce

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, fish sauce, sliced green onion, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the seasonings are well distributed throughout the pork.
Divide the pork mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a burger patty.
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the burger patties in the pan, and cook for approximately 5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the patties are nicely browned.
If desired, during the last minute of cooking, add any additional keto-friendly toppings to the burgers to warm them through.
Remove the burgers from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes.
Serve the Asian Pork Keto Burgers on lettuce wraps with optional toppings such as sliced avocado and a drizzle of sriracha sauce for an extra kick.

Notes

For a lower sodium option, use low-sodium soy sauce.

Ensure your soy sauce and fish sauce are gluten-free if you're maintaining a strict gluten-free diet.

Adjust the level of spice to your preference by adding more or less sriracha sauce.
