Cooking Instructions

1

Caramelize the Onions

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. Set aside.

2

Cook the Mushrooms

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the finely chopped mushrooms and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until they are soft and any moisture has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper.

3

Prepare the Beef Patties

In a mixing bowl, combine the grass-fed beef, cooked mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties.

4

Cook the Patties

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

5

Assemble the Burger

On the bottom half of each burger bun, layer the caramelized onions, the cooked beef patty, arugula, and grated parmesan. Drizzle with umami sauce before placing the top half of the bun.

6

Serve

Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
