Osteria Burger Recipe

Prepare the Fried Shallots

Slice the shallots thinly and soak them in cold water for 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat and fry the shallots until golden brown. Remove and place on paper towel to drain excess oil.

Make the Truffle Aioli

In a bowl, combine mayonnaise and truffle oil. Mix well and set aside.

Prepare the Beef Patties

In a mixing bowl, combine the bistecca blend beef with salt and black pepper. Form into 4 equal patties.

Cook the Patties

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of smoked mozzarella on top of each patty to melt.

Assemble the Burgers

Toast the burger buns lightly. Spread a generous amount of truffle aioli on the bottom half of each bun. Top with the beef patty with melted mozzarella, a handful of arugula, and fried shallots. Place the top bun on and serve.
