Ingredients
  

for pork

  • 1.5 pounds lean ground pork
  • ¼ cup mashed potatoes leftover mashed potatoes work great
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

for the topping

  • 1 ¼ cups Panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup crispy onions crushed
  • ⅓ cup mayonnaise

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Melt the butter in a skillet add the Panko bread crumbs, and cook them over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until they’re golden brown. Transfer the crumbs to a medium-sized bowl.
  • Crush the crispy fried onions and add them to the butter-Panko mixture and mix well to combine. Set aside about ¼ cup of this mixture.
  • Combine the ground pork, mashed potatoes, flour, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Shape the mixture into medium-sized patties.
  • Brush the patties all over with the mayonnaise then press them into the Panko-onion crumbs.
  • Transfer the coated patties to your air fryer and air fry at 400-F for about 10 minutes then flip and cook until they reach an internal temperature of 165-F.
  • Remove them from the air fryer, serve with a spoonful of the reserved crumbs, and enjoy!

Notes

Chef Jenn's Tips

  • Use lean ground pork so you don’t have much fat coming out of the patties as they cook.
  • Panko keeps its crunch through the cooking process, but you could use regular bread crumbs if you can’t find Panko.
  • Add more flavor! A bit of onion powder and garlic powder to the pork mixture will infuse it with even more flavor.
