1. Mix the ground pork and spices together in a medium mixing basin with your hands. Form the mixture into eight balls, then press each ball into ½ -inch thick patties, each weighing 2 oz.
2. To make a shallow dimple, gently push your thumb into the center of each patty. This keeps the patties from falling apart as they cook.
3. In a large (14-inch) nonstick skillet, heat the oil for 2 minutes over medium-high heat. To coat, swirl it around.
4. Preheat the skillet and place the patties in it (you might need to cook them in two batches). Cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked through.
5. They should have an interior temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Insert a thermometer sideways into the patty and press it toward the middle to check the temperature.
