Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
Instructions
Peel and slice the large yellow onions into thin rings.
Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and butter, letting them melt together.
Add the sliced onions to the pan. Sprinkle the salt and sugar over the top, and stir to coat.
Cook the onions over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until deeply caramelized. Lower the heat if the onions start browning too quickly.
While the onions are cooking, make the garlic aioli. Mince the garlic cloves finely or use a garlic press.
In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.
To make the balsamic glaze, add balsamic vinegar and honey to a small saucepan. Simmer on low heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens into a syrupy consistency. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Assemble your burger toppings: Spread a generous layer of garlic aioli on the burger bun. Top the burger patty with a heap of caramelized onions, then drizzle the balsamic glaze over the onions.
Serve immediately for a burger experience that redefines savory-sweet harmony.
