Cat Cora's Copycat McDonald's Big Mac

Makes 4 Burgers 

INGREDIENTS

For the Sauce
3 tbsp. mayonnaise

3 tbsp. finely chopped onions

3 tbsp. pickle relish 3 tbsp. ketchup

1 tbsp. deli mustard

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. sweet paprika

1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

1 tsp. white wine vinegar

For the Burgers
2 tbsp. vegetable oil

1 lb. ground beef

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

1/2 white onion, finely diced

8 seeded burger buns

1/4 head butter lettuce, finely shredded

2 large dill pickles, thinly sliced

4 slices cheddar cheese

PREPARATION

Make the burger sauce:
In a medium bowl, add all of the sauce ingredients and whisk until smooth. Refrigerate to allow the flavors to combine for 1 hour.

In a separate bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper and form into 8 equal balls (2 ounces each). Press evenly into a 4 3/4" ring. Brush the insides of the buns with the oil and toast in a large skillet lightly over medium heat. Set aside. Add oil to pan to medium high. Once the oil is hot fry the patties (in two batches) for 2 minutes per side, until cooked. On four of the patties, top with a slice of cheese for the final minute to allow it to melt a little.

To assemble the burgers, spread the burger sauce across the bottom bun. Sprinkle some of the onions and shredded lettuce then add one burger patty. Top with a second bottom bun, more burger sauce, onions, lettuce, and pickles.

Finally, add the second burger patty and top with the bun.

Chocolate Budino
Chocolate Budino

Budino in Italian means pudding but this is more like a molten cake, moist and almost gooey in the middle when served warm from the oven. I like to serve the budino with a scoop of homemade Banana Chocolate-Chunk Ice Cream (in my cookbook, Cooking From the Hip), but it's also great with creme anglaise and fresh raspberries or strawberries.
