Banh Mi Pork Burgers

• In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, carrot, half the cilantro, juice from half the lime, 1 tsp sugar, and as much shallot as you like. (For 4 servings, use juice from whole lime and 2 tsp sugar.) Season with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate.

• Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with half the garlic powder (you’ll use the rest later), a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until golden brown and tender, 20-25 minutes.

• While potatoes roast, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with Sriracha to taste.

• In a second medium bowl, combine pork*, ginger, ponzu, remaining cilantro, remaining garlic powder, 1 tsp sugar, and 1⁄4 tsp salt. (For 4 servings, use 2 tsp sugar and 1⁄2 tsp salt.) • Form mixture into two patties (four patties for 4), each slightly wider than a burger bun. • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add patties and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-7 minutes per side.
