By Recipe0 System

The war of wasabi v. horseradish has been raging on for years. “Wasabi is only for Japanese food!” “Horseradish goes with American cuisine!” Well, peanut gallery, we’re here to tell you that you’re just plain wrong. Ready for a great bar trivia fact: wasabi and horseradish are the same! (Well, 90% of the time.) All you *really* need to know here is that wasabi + garlic + mayo makes a BOMB sauce for slathering on top of your cheesy caramelized onion burger, and we’re in the business of creating deliciousness.

Instructions

6 steps

1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Trim, peel, and cut carrots into long, thin sticks (like fries—ours were 3 inches long and ⅓-inch wide). Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Peel and finely chop garlic. Halve buns.
2

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until lightly browned and softened, 6-7 minutes. Add 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4 servings) and reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until caramelized, 3-4 minutes more. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate and set aside. Wipe out pan.
3

Meanwhile, toss carrots on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast until browned and tender, 15-20 minutes, then transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, shape beef into two ½-inch-thick patties (four for 4 servings), each slightly wider than a burger bun. Season all over with salt and pepper.
4

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, a pinch of garlic, and a pinch of wasabi (taste and add more from there if desired.) Season with salt and pepper; stir until very smooth. (Use a whisk here if you’ve got one!)
5

Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for onion over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side.
6

While patties cook, place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small, microwavesafe bowl; microwave until melted, about 30 seconds. Brush onto cut sides of buns. Place buns, cut sides up, on sheet used to bake carrots. Toast in oven until golden, 3-5 minutes. Fill toasted buns with patties, caramelized onion, and horseradish aioli. Serve with carrot fries on the side.
