Ingredients

10
soda crackers
¼ cup
water
60 ml
3 tbsp
milk
45 ml
1 tbsp
maple syrup
15 ml
1 tsp
onion powder
½ tsp
dried oregano
½ tsp
salt
¼ tsp
garlic powder
1
pinch ground allspice or nutmeg
1 lb
lean ground pork
450 g
Softened butter or oil, for cooking

Directions

Step 1
In a bowl, crumble the soda crackers as finely as possible. Add the water, milk, maple syrup, spices and salt. Let soak for 2 minutes. Add the meat and mix well with your hands. Season with pepper. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight or use immediately (see note).
Step 2
Divide the mixture into 16 pieces. Shape into meatballs. With lightly oiled hands, flatten the meatballs into patties.
Step 3
Preheat the raclette grill (on either the ribbed or flat side) on medium heat. Once the cooking grill is hot, brush with some softened butter or oil.
Step 4
Cook half of the patties at a time on the hot grill until cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side. Serve plain or covered with melted cheese.

Tips

  • For best results, refrigerate the meat mixture for 24 hours. However, it can also be used immediately.
  • The patties can also be cooked in an air fryer. Place the patties in the air fryer basket lined with parchment paper and cook for 6 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
