Burger with Truffle Mustard

Updated: Mar 14


Ingredients:


For the Burger:

  • 500g (1 lb) ground beef

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

  • 1 tablespoon oil or butter for grilling

  • 4 hamburger buns

  • 4 slices of cheese (cheddar or your choice)


For the Truffle Mustard Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons Black Truffle Mustard (Great Southern Truffles)

  • 1 tablespoon Black Truffle Honey (optional, for a sweeter touch)

  • 1 tablespoon Black Truffle Aioli (or heavy cream for a smoother texture)

  • Lemon juice to taste (for a bit of acidity)

  • Black pepper to taste


For the Assembly:

  • Lettuce leaves

  • Tomato slices

  • Red onion, thinly sliced (optional)


Instructions:


  1. Making the Burgers:

    • Shape the ground beef into 4 equal patties, each about 2 cm (1 inch) thick.

    • Season with salt and black pepper.

    • Heat a skillet or grill with a little oil or butter.

    • Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your preferred doneness. In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add a slice of cheese on top of each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.


  2. Assembling the Burger:

    • Slice the buns in half and lightly toast them on the skillet or in the oven.

    • Spread a generous amount of Truffle Mustard sauce on the top and bottom halves of the buns.

    • Add a layer of lettuce, a slice of tomato, and red onion (if using).

    • Place the cooked burger patty with melted cheese on top.

    • Close the burger with the other half of the bun.


  3. Serving:

    • Serve immediately with French fries, sweet potato fries, or a light salad.



Optional Sauces and Toppings:


  1. Black Truffle Aioli:

    • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise

    • 1-2 teaspoons black truffle oil (or truffle paste)

    • 1 small garlic clove, minced

    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Instructions: Mix all ingredients together until smooth. This rich and creamy aioli will add an extra layer of truffle flavor to your burger.


  2. Blue Cheese Sauce:

    • 4 tablespoons sour cream or heavy cream

    • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

    • 1-2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese

    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Instructions: Combine all ingredients until smooth and creamy. The bold flavor of blue cheese will give your burger a sharp, tangy twist that complements the truffle mustard.


  3. Black Truffle Honey Mustard Sauce:

    • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard

    • 1 tablespoon honey

    • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Instructions: Mix the ingredients together to make a sweet and tangy sauce. This can be an excellent complement to the Truffle Mustard, adding some balance with sweetness.
