Ingredients
For 4 servings
For the Sweet Fig Burger
4 burger buns
1/2 lb. ground beef, 80/20
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
1 small red onion
6 ounces Brie cheese (Géramont)
4 tbsp fig spread
Oil for frying
Preparation in 6 steps
Start by forming the ground beef into even 170g patties and then chilling them.
Prepare the grill or pan by heating it to medium heat. Season the burgers with salt and pepper.
The onions should be fried directly on the grill or in a pan, turning them occasionally. The frying process is complete when the onions are slightly translucent and have dark grill marks.
The patties should be grilled for 4-5 minutes or pan-fried for 3-4 minutes. After turning, place Brie cheese (Géramont) on each patty.
Let the patties cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Top the bottom and top buns with fig spread, followed by the burger patty, grilled/fried onions and the top bun.
