Instructions
1
Prep
Season the beef patty on both sides with salt and black pepper. Thinly slice the onion and set aside.
2
Saute
Warm the olive oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat and cook the onion for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden at the edges.
3
Sear
Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patty for 3 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms and the centre reaches medium doneness.
4
Melt
Lay the Emmental cheese over the patty for the last minute of cooking, covering the pan briefly so it softens and drapes over the beef.
5
Fry
Melt the butter in a separate small pan over medium heat and fry the egg for 2 to 3 minutes until the white is fully set and the yolk edges are still soft and glossy.
6
Finish
Stir the Dijon mustard into the mayonnaise in a small bowl until evenly combined into a smooth aioli.
7
Toast
Split the brioche bun and toast the cut sides in the empty skillet over medium heat for 1 minute until golden and crisp.
8
Plate
Spread the aioli on both bun sides, layer lettuce, tomato, patty, onion, and egg, then close the bun and cut in half.
