  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       lb           Lean ground pork
   3                    Garlic cloves, chopped
   2                    Green onions, chopped
   2       ts           Soy sauce
   2       ts           Peanut or other mild
                        -vegetable oil
           pn           Sugar
                        Few drops Tabasco sauce, or
                        -pinch cayenne pepper
                        Hoisin sauce
           lg           Whole lettuce leaves
     1/2   c            Or so roasted peanuts,
                        -coarsely ground
                        Handful cilantro, coarsely
                        -chopped

  This is typical of what is becoming known here as East/West cuisine,
  the flavors and ingredients of Asia presented in a Western form.  All
  these are from an article in the San Francisco Chronicle, 7/15/92.
  Each bite of these burgers packs a zesty wallop of flavor and
  texture. Good accompaniments are bland steamed rice or French bread,
  each of which balances these assertive flavors.
  
  Mix meat with garlic, onions, soy sauce, peanut oil, sugar and
  Tabasco or cayenne.  Form into patties and grill until cooked
  through. Serve each grilled patty spread with hoisin sauce, wrapped
  in a leaf of lettuce, sprinkled with peanuts and cilantro.
  
  Makes 4 servings.

  NOTE: In the body of the accompanying article, the author suggests
  using pita bread lightly spread with hoisin and putting the patties
  into it along with some of the cabbage salad.  That's probably the
  way I'd go.
