Don't worry; we aren't giving you a bunch of hay to put on your burgers… you aren't the famous Mr. Ed! “Haystack” is basically talking about one thing: onions (or shallots), onions (or shallots), and onions (or shallots), piled up deliciously on a beautiful burger. We've battered and fried a bunch of sharp shallots, just for that perfect crunchy topping. Save the hay for horses; save this burger for yourself.

- Ground Beef 160° F |

Customize It Instructions
-
If using ground turkey, cook until patties reach minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes per side.
-
1 Roast the Fries
Cut potatoes into 1/2"-thick fries and pat dry.
Place fries on prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer.Roast in hot oven until golden-brown, 25-30 minutes, tossing once halfway through.While fries roast, continue recipe. -
2 Prepare Ingredients and Heat Oil
Core and cut tomato into 1/4" slices.
Peel and thinly slice shallot. Keep shallot slices intact as much as possible.Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 4 tsp. olive oil. Let heat, 5 minutes.While oil heats, combine tempura mix and 3 Tbsp. water in a mixing bowl and stir until a thin batter forms, like pancake batter. If too thick, add additional water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. -
3 Fry the Shallots
Line a plate with a paper towel.
Add shallots to mixing bowl with tempura batter and stir until coated. Keep shallot slices intact as much as possible.Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of batter to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.Working in batches, transfer shallots to hot oil, allowing excess batter to drip off (there should be no overlap). Cook until golden-brown, 1-2 minutes per side.Transfer shallots to towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining shallots.Remove from burner. -
4 Cook the Patties
In another mixing bowl, combine ground beef and a pinch of salt. Form mixture into two evenly-sized patties, about 5" in diameter. Season both sides with garlic pepper.
Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add patties to hot, dry pan. Cook, 4 minutes per side.Top patties with cheese and cook until cheese is melted and patties reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 1-2 minutes.Remove from burner. Transfer patties to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve. -
