Benefits of the Main Ingredients
Lean Ground Pork
Lean ground pork is an excellent source of complete protein, helping support muscle growth and repair while keeping you feeling satisfied. It also provides important nutrients including vitamin B12, thiamine, niacin, selenium, phosphorus, and zinc.
Green Onions
Green onions provide a mild, fresh onion flavour while contributing vitamin K, vitamin C, folate, and naturally occurring antioxidants. They add freshness without overpowering the pork.
Fresh Ginger
Fresh ginger adds a warm, aromatic flavour that complements pork beautifully. It also contains naturally occurring antioxidant compounds that make it a popular ingredient in many healthy cuisines.

Autism-Friendly Benefits
These patties have a soft, juicy texture that many autistic individuals may find easy to eat. The green onions can be chopped very finely or omitted for a milder flavour, and the amount of ginger can easily be adjusted to suit individual preferences. Lean pork provides high-quality protein, zinc, selenium, and vitamin B12 to support healthy growth and muscle maintenance. As every autistic individual has unique sensory preferences, the flavour, texture, and size of the patties can easily be personalised.

Serve with steamed rice, cauliflower rice, roasted vegetables, mashed sweet potatoes, or a crisp salad for a complete meal. They also make excellent burger patties served in gluten-free buns with lettuce and cucumber or can be sliced into lettuce wraps with avocado and your favourite gluten-free dipping sauce.
