JAPANESE BURGERS WITH WASABI KETCHUP
This burger recipe comes from the chef Tadashi Ono's 2011 book, "The Japanese Grill: From Classic Yakitori to Steak, Seafood and Vegetables," written with Harris Salat. The writer Alex Witchel raved about it in The Times that same year: "Half beef, half pork, it stayed uncannily moist despite being cooked through. Perfection."

Steps:
- Prepare the wasabi ketchup: Whisk together the ketchup, soy sauce and wasabi paste.
- Make the burgers: Prepare a grill for medium heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs and milk and let rest 2 to 3 minutes. Add the sirloin, pork, onion, soy sauce, salt and pepper. Knead the meat until it becomes sticky and binds together; divide into 4 parts.
- Lightly dab your hands with sesame oil. Using your palms, roll each part of the meat into a ball, then pat the ball flat, shifting it from hand to hand, to form a 1/2-inch-thick patty. Make a shallow indentation across the center of the patty with the side of your hand, to keep it from puffing while it grills.
- Grill the burgers, flipping twice, until browned and cooked through, with no pink in the middle, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, they may be broiled or sautéed.) Let rest for 2 minutes. Serve on buns, topped with some wasabi ketchup.

This recipe has wonderful flavor and the water chestnuts give it great texture. My husband loves meat but he'd prefer this over regular hamburgers anyway! Make batches ahead of time and freeze the patties using waxed paper to separate.

this recipe was in AARP adapted from Sara Moulton's Weeknight Meals. We tried it and found it delicious!! In fact so much so, we had a 32lb hen turkey in the freezer, cut her up and ground the meat so we can use for this recipe and others. It's an easy recipe to make and very good for you. They smell so good while mixing up, you can hardly wait. Yuuuuummmmm gooood!!!
