Ingredients
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp. dried wild mushrooms(morels, porcini, shiitake, etc.), finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 ½ tsps. worcestershire sauce, divided
- 1 lb. ground wagyu beef or high-quality ground sirloin
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- ½ tsp. coarse ground black pepper
- 8 slices Sargento® Creamery Sliced Baby Swiss Natural Cheese
- 1 can beef consommé(10 ozs.)
- ½ cup water
- 8 ea. brioche slider buns, split, toasted
- 1 ½ cups fresh arugula
- ¼ tsp. truffle flavored oil, optional
Directions
- Prepare aioli by combining the mayonnaise, mushrooms, garlic and ½ tsp. worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to assemble.
- Form ground beef into two-ounce balls. Place about three inches apart on a large sheet pan lined with plastic wrap. Place another piece of plastic wrap over the burger balls. Using the bottom of a flat glass or lid, flatten the burger balls until about an inch larger than the size of the buns, or about 3 ½”. Remove top plastic wrap and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set aside while pre-heating griddle.
- Pre-heat griddle or large frying pan over medium heat. In a medium saucepan, make au jus by combining the beef consommé, water and the remaining worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
- Place as many mini burger patties as will fit comfortably on the griddle. Press patties down with a flat spatula. Cook for 1 minute. Flip burgers and press down with spatula. Cook an additional 1 minute. Transfer cooked burgers to the pan of warm au jus. Repeat process with remaining burgers. Keep warm until ready to assemble.
- To Assemble: Spread 1 ½ tsps. prepared aioli on each side of the toasted slider buns. Place 2 quarters of swiss cheese on the bun bottoms. Transfer burgers from au jus to bun bottoms. Top each with 2 more quarters of cheese. Place a few arugula leaves over cheese. Drizzle a few drops of truffle oil on arugula if desired. Finish with bun tops. Serve 2 sliders each with a side of au jus for dipping.
