A bold, structured wine needs a dish to match. Juicy beef, sharp aged cheddar, and sweet caramelised onions bring
richness and depth, while the Jaraman Cabernet Sauvignon’s dark fruit and firm tannins cut through the intensity.
The truffle aioli adds a final layer of savoury depth. Recipe by Tammi Kwok.

INGREDIENTS

  • 250g beef mince
  • Olive oil, for drizzling
  • 2 brioche burger buns
  • 2 slices aged cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp truffle aioli
  • Caramelised Onions
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • Rosemary Chips
  • 500g shop bought frozen steak cut chips,
    cooked according to package directions
  • 2 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 2 tsp salt

METHOD

1Season the beef mince with a generous pinch of salt and pepper into a medium mixing bowl. Mix well to combine, then shape into two even patties. Transfer to a plate, ready to cook.

2To make the caramelised onions, melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onions, brown sugar and balsamic vinegar and cook for 2-3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and cook for a further 7-8 minutes, or until softened and caramelised. Transfer the caramelised onions to a small bowl and set aside.

3Wipe out the frying pan, then heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the burger patties to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your liking. Once browned and cooked through, add the cheese slices to the top of the burger, then cover the pan with a lid to melt. Remove from the heat.

4While the burger patties are cooking, add the burger buns to a wire rack in the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes to toast.

5Toss your cooked chips in a large bowl with the rosemary and salt.

6Assemble the burgers by spreading truffle aioli on the toasted burger bun, topping with the caramelised onions and beef patty with melted cheese. Serve with rosemary chips on the side.
