Bifteck Hache a La Lyonnaise - Hamburgers

Unread post by Warmonga »

(Ground Beef with Onions and Herbs)

[For 6 Hamburgers]

|
3/4 cup finely minced yellow onions
2 Tb butter

....Cook the onions slowly in the butter for about 10 minutes until very tender
....but not browned. Place in a mixing bowl.


1 1/2 lbs. lean, ground beef (10% fat preferred)
2 Tb softened butter or lard
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/8 thyme
1 egg

....Add the beef, butter or lard, seasonings, and egg to the onions in the
....mixing bowl and beat vigorously with a wooden spoon to blend thoroughly.
....Correct seasoning. Form into patties 3/4 inch thick. Cover with waxed paper
.... and refrigerate until ready to use.


1/2 cup flour spread on a plate

....Just before sauteing, roll the patties lightly in the flour. Shake off
....excess flour. (Note. I found it easier to form patty as a ball, roll it,
....then make it a patty)


1 Tb butter and 1 Tb oil
1 Heavy skillet just large enough to hold the patties in one layer.

....Place the butter and oil in the skillet and set over moderately high heat.
....When you see the butter foam begin to subside, indicating it is hot enough
....sear the meat, saute the patties for 2 to 3 minutes or more on each side,
....depending on whether you like your hamburgers rare, medium, or well done.


A warm serving platter

....Arrange the hamburgers on the serving patter and keep warm for a moment
....while finishing the sauce.


1/2 cup beef stock, canned beef bouillon, dry white wine, dry white vermouth,
red wine, or 1/4 cup water. (Note. I recommend red wine like Burgundy.)
2 to 3 Tb soften butter

....Pour the fat out of the skillet. Add the liquid and boil it down rapidly,
....scraping up the coagulated pan juices, until it has reduced almost to a
....syrup. Off heat, swirl the butter by half-tablespoons into the sauce until
....it is absorbed. Pour the sauce over the hamburgers and serve.
....(Note. The sauce is what makes the burgers really POP!)

---Enjoy!

This is the basic French recipe for hamburger. Go nuts with the extras, but I do recommend trying in its original
form before adding anything else.

If there other french cuisine recipes or types of dishes that you are interested in making, just let me know. I just started my new hobby and my wife LOVES me for it!

Just a quick note.. The 3/4 cup of onion, is basically 1 regular yellow onion.

I am assuming that the above is not 1/2 cup of each, but pick one? And vermouth?? In hamburgers?? Hell, I'd try it :D

Or a cognac like Brandy, which is distilled wine. (I wonder if that would work?)
