Crispy Prosciutto & Fonduta Burgers with Truffled Potato Wedges & Mixed Green Salad

Crispy Prosciutto & Fonduta Burgers

with Truffled Potato Wedges & Mixed Green Salad

Burger night... but make it bougie! These all-beef patties are stacked with primo flavors—salty seared prosciutto, a tangy arugula and shallot salad, and creamy fonduta. Nope, not a typo! Fonduta is the Italian twist on Swiss fondue, boasting a thicker, more custard-like texture that’s perfect for spreading, dipping, and dunking. Along with adding delicious drippiness to burgers, you’ll serve truffled fingerling potatoes with this cheesy dip for a fancier-feeling French fry. Basically, it’s burger bliss.

Instructions

7 steps
  1. 1

    Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

    Halve potatoes lengthwise. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

    Carefully toss potatoes with as much truffle zest as you like.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice shallot. In a small bowl, combine shallot, vinegar, ¼ tsp sugar (½ tsp for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Set aside, stirring occasionally.

    Halve buns. Halve tomatoes lengthwise.

  3. 3

    In a small pot, heat cream sauce base over medium-high heat until gently bubbling, 1-2 minutes.

    Reduce heat to medium; whisk in Parmesan and Italian cheese blend one packet at a time until melted. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.

  4. 4

    Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add prosciutto in a single layer; sear until browned and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. (For 4 servings, cook in batches if necessary.) TIP: Press down on prosciutto with a spatula for even crisping. If prosciutto starts to brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium.

    Turn off heat; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Wipe out pan

  5. 5

    Form beef* into two patties (four patties for 4 servings), each slightly wider than a burger bun; season all over with salt and pepper.

    Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for prosciutto over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot, add patties. Cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side. Set aside to rest.

    While patties cook, toast buns until golden.

  6. 6

    Meanwhile, in a medium bowl (use a large bowl for 4 servings), combine arugula, tomatoes, and as much shallot as you like. Leave vinegar mixture in bowl.

    Whisk 2 TBSP olive oil (4 TBSP for 4) into bowl with vinegar mixture; season with salt and pepper.

    Toss salad with as much dressing as you like.

  7. 7

    Return pot with fonduta to stovetop over low heat. Whisk in water 1 TBSP at a time until mixture reaches a saucy consistency.

    Divide buns between plates; fill with patties, prosciutto (halve if necessary), a bit of salad (save the rest for serving), and fonduta (save some for dipping).

    Divide burgers, salad, and potatoes between plates. Serve with remaining fonduta on the side.
