Make a simple burger with an unusual patty. What makes it unusual is the tender, juicy meat and piquant flavor, a reminder of the days when meat was paired with sweets. Embrace the traditions of haute cuisine; you don't need to memorize all the sauce ingredients; you can simply mash up some boiled fruit. It's the fruit found in Chinese duck sauce that imparts an elusive sweetness to the patty. No, this isn't a duck sauce, as you might think. It's a sweet and sour condiment made with fruits (plums, apricots, pineapple, peaches) and flavored with vinegar, ginger, and chili pepper. The sauce got its funny name when it was mistakenly served with rather dry Peking duck instead of hoisin sauce.
Since duck sauce is primarily served in Chinese restaurants in the United States, you might have a hard time finding the original recipe. Try substituting it with a more traditional Chinese plum sauce.

We recommend
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Soak onion rings in cold water.
Meanwhile, mix the ground meat with diced onion, parsley, breadcrumbs, egg, and paprika. Add 1 tablespoon each of tomato sauce and duck sauce, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of pepper. Mix well and form into 4 patties, each 2.5 cm thick, leaving a small indentation in the center of each with your finger. - Preheat grill to medium heat.
Brush the patties with olive oil and cook for about 6 minutes, until the grill marks on the bottom are etched. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining tomato sauce and duck sauce. Set aside a couple of tablespoons of the mixture. Flip the patties, brush with the sauce, and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Toast the buns, if desired. - Brush the buns with the reserved sauce. Drain the onions; they've lost their tartness. Arrange the patties, coated in duck sauce, on the bottom halves of the buns, then top with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. Top with the other half and serve with potato chips.
