Savory Burger from Dish Bistro

Preparation of Parmesan Chips:

• 1
  Place grated Parmesan in circular shapes on a baking sheet with parchment paper. The size should be roughly the same as the diameter of the brioche.
• 2
  Then remove the baking sheet and let it cool.
• 3
  Put in the oven and bake at 180°C for approximately 5 minutes until golden.

Instructions for Caramelized Onion:

• 1
  Cut the onion into thin half-moons.
• 2
  Heat butter with a little oil in a pan to prevent it from burning.
• 3
  Sauté the onion in butter until it reaches a darker golden color, then sprinkle with sugar and let it caramelize.
• 4
  Finally, add balsamic vinegar, mix thoroughly, lightly salt, and let it simmer for a few more minutes to evaporate the liquid.

Preparation of the Burger:

• 1
  The beef needs to be properly chilled before grinding.
• 2
  Clean the meat, cut it into larger strips, and grind it. After grinding, work it well, weigh it to 150g, and shape it into burgers.
• 3
  Since the meat is of high quality, season it only with salt and freshly ground pepper just before grilling, just like a steak.
• 4
  Cut the brioche in half and toast both halves on the grill to warm them up.
• 5
  Meanwhile, grill the burger on olive oil for approximately 2 minutes on each side. It's important to spread the meat into a regular patty with a spatula because the meat shrinks during cooking.
• 6
  Finally, cover and let it sit under the lid for less than a minute to cook inside. If the grill is properly heated, the burger will be cooked to medium to medium-well, which is exactly the degree we need. At the same time, sauté salted and peppered slices of mushrooms along with a slice of fresh tomato.
• 7
  When the meat is done, spread ketchup on both sides of the brioche, place the meat on the bottom, add caramelized onion on the meat, a slice of Parmesan chips on top, followed by tomato with mushrooms. Finally, cover with the top half of the brioche and serve.
