El Reno-Style Onion-Fried Burger
Source : Johnnie's Grill, El Reno, Oklahoma via The dailyrecipes mailer on yahoogroups.com
1/4 pound ground beef, about 80% lean
1/3 cup paper-thin slices yellow onion
Form beef into a sphere and slap it onto a hot, lightly oiled griddle or into a hot, well-seasoned cast-iron skillet.
Place onions atop the round of beef. Use a spatula to flatten the onions into the beef as you flatten the beef
into a circular patty. Press down 3 or 4 times to create a broad patty, changing the angle of attack each time you press, and mashing the onions deep into the top of the raw meat. Once the underside is cooked to your liking, flip the hamburger so that all the ribbons of onion are now on the underside. Give it enough time for the onions to begin to caramelize, then carefully use the spatula to scoop up the burger and fried onions and place patty on a bun, onion side up.
Makes 1 onion-fried burger.
