‘Chinese’ Burger!

‘Chinese’ Burger!

We had a DIY Sweet & Sour the other evening. In, what is tradition here, we popped the remaining Sweet & Sour in a jar in the fridge. Nothing intentionally goes to taste here. So after what seemed like a long day of decorating Sue created this monster.

There’s really not a lot of point in typing up a recipe for this. But basically the DIY Thousand Island dressing which Sue usually puts on the buns was replaced with Sweet & Sour sauce. The hand pressed Burgers had an addition of Chinese Five Spice and were topped with Bacon, Chorizo and melted Cheese!

Sounds odd – Tasted superb!
