Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ½ cup mayonnaise

  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

  • ¾ teaspoon truffle oil

  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 clove garlic, grated

  • 1 ¼ teaspoons salt, divided

  • teaspoon plus 1/2 tsp. black pepper

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 (16 ounce) package sliced cremini mushrooms

  • 5 sprigs thyme

  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder

  • ¼ teaspoon paprika

  • 1 ¼ pounds ground chuck

  • 4 slices Swiss cheese

  • 4 kaiser rolls, split and toasted

Directions

  1. Whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, truffle oil, parsley, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.

  2. Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in mushrooms and thyme sprigs; cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and Worcestershire sauce. Transfer mushroom mixture to a bowl; keep warm for serving. Wipe out skillet.

  3. Stir together garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper for the rub. Divide beef into 4 portions; gently shape into balls.

  4. Heat same skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches as needed, add meat portions to dry skillet; press down firmly with a flat spatula or grill press into 41/2-inch-diameter patties. Sprinkle evenly with rub. Cook 2 minutes per side or until well browned. Top patties with Swiss cheese and cook about 30 seconds until cheese is melted and an instant- read thermometer inserted into centers registers at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).

  5. To assemble burgers, spread bun tops and bottoms with truffle mayo. Fill buns with patties and sautéed mushrooms.

Cook's Note:

To toast buns, heat 1 teaspoon canola oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Toast buns cut sides down until golden and crisp on edges, 1 to 2 minutes.

This is a very tender veal dish with a flavorful tomato and herb sauce. It takes a while to prepare, but does not require much attention while cooking.

Cornish Hen with Tart Cherry Sauce

Cornish Hen with Tart Cherry Sauce

This was an idea I had for a long time but never got around to doing it and it came out fantastic couldn't have hoped for better. My wife and I loved it. The tart cherries complement the flavorful rub on the hen perfectly. For golden brown crispy skin increase temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for last 10 minutes of cooking.

Yia Yia's Baklava

This recipe was passed from my Yia Yia to her daughter-in-law (my mother) to me. People love this as a Christmas gift. It has gained a big reputation among our friends. One time, my mother donated a small tin of baklava to a church charity auction. It was very competitive, but the price was driven up to $40!

Bobotie (South African Beef Casserole)

Bobotie (South African Beef Casserole)

If you enjoy curried anything, you’re going to love bobotie. The aromatic meat filling, combined with the very thin, bay leaf-infused custard on top, makes this an easy, gorgeous, and extremely delicious one-pan meal.

Chicken Shepherd's Pie

Chicken Shepherd's Pie

This a fabulous one-pan meal. Serve with a salad and French bread. Just use left over fried, baked, or grilled chicken. You may substitute your family's favorite vegetable in place of corn. Potatoes and roasted garlic can be done 1 to 2 days ahead. If preference is to use dried spices, then use 1/2 teaspoon each of thyme and rosemary. Use any cheese of your choice.
