The real one

You need

• 1 lb (450 g) ground pork
• 5 garlic cloves, grated
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp vinegar
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp salt
• 4 potato rolls
• 4 eggs
• 4 slices American cheese
• 1 tbsp oil
• Banana ketchup or sriracha mayo

How to make it

1. Mix the pork with garlic, sugar, soy, vinegar, paprika, pepper and salt. Shape 4 thin patties a little wider than the rolls.
2. Fry the patties in oil over medium heat, 3 to 4 minutes a side, until caramelized and cooked through. Watch them: the sugar browns fast.
3. In the same pan cook the eggs soft, scrambled or fried, and melt the cheese on top.
4. Toast the rolls, add a patty, egg and cheese, and a spoon of banana ketchup or sriracha mayo.

Tips

• The patties freeze well raw between sheets of parchment.
• For a Boonie's-style twist, serve between two thin rice-flour pancakes.
