How to make a smashed cheeseburger with caramelized onion?

    1. Heat a splash of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onion with a pinch of salt and one teaspoon of sugar. Cook gently for 20 minutes on low heat until golden brown and soft. Set aside.
    2. Divide the minced beef into 4 equal balls of about 100 grams each. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
    3. Place the frying pan over high heat and let it get very hot. Add a small knob of butter and put 2 meatballs in the pan.
    4. Press each ball immediately and firmly flat with a spatula or the base of a sturdy bowl into a thin patty about 1 cm thick. Hold the pressure for 10 seconds.
    5. Cook the burgers for 2 minutes without touching them. You’ll see the edges turn brown. Flip them with a spatula and immediately place a slice of melting cheese on each burger.
    6. Cook another 1 minute until the cheese is nicely melted. Repeat with the other 2 meatballs.
    7. Toast the brioche buns briefly in the same pan in the cooking fat. That adds extra flavor.
    8. Spread mayonnaise and mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Stack 2 burgers on top of each other, spoon over the caramelized onion and add pickles and iceberg lettuce. Top with the other bun and serve immediately.

The key to a good smashed burger is heat. A heavy frying pan holds heat well and gives you that crispy crust formation that really makes a burger tasty. The hotter the pan, the better the result. No patience required, just a good pan.

This recipe also works perfectly for an informal dinner with friends. Make the caramelized onion in advance and set everything out on the table. Everyone builds their own burger. Eating together, enjoying together. That's exactly what this dish was made for.
