Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. You will need 14 oz of boneless pork, 2 eggs, 1 garlic clove, 2 tablespoons of starch, 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, and salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Step 2
Rinse the pork thoroughly and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut the meat into very small cubes.
Step 3
Place the chopped pork in a deep bowl. Add the eggs, pressed garlic, mayonnaise and starch. Season with salt and ground black pepper.
Step 4
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly. The mixture should be thick and sticky.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2–3 hours. For the best result, leave it overnight.

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Spoon small portions of the meat mixture into the pan and shape them into patties. Fry for 6–8 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through.
