Onion Burger Recipe

BURGERS

1. 1

   Make garlic mayo

   In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.

2. 2

   Prepare crispy onion topping

   In a shallow bowl combine flour and cornstarch. Toss thinly sliced onions in the mixture to lightly coat. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to about 350°F (175°C). Fry onions in batches until crispy and golden. Remove and drain on paper towels.

3. 3

   Season and form beef patties

   Season the four beef portions with salt and pepper. Gently form into four evenly sized patties, about ¾ inch thick, making a slight indentation in the center for even cooking.

4. 4

   Toast buns

   Slice buns and brush lightly with a bit of oil or melted butter. Toast on a hot skillet or grill until lightly golden.

5. 5

   Cook patties and melt cheese

   Cook patties on a hot grill or skillet over medium-high heat, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium. In the last minute, place a cheese slice on each patty and let it melt.

6. 6

   Assemble the onion burgers

   Spread garlic mayo on the cut sides of the buns. Place lettuce on the bottom bun, add a cheesy patty, top with crispy onion, pickle slices, and the top bun.
