Now cook the onions in the meat juices, adding more oil if necessary. Once they start to caramelise at the sides, add the mushrooms and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes before putting in a warm place
Split the brioche rolls and griddle for a minute on each side.
Make up your burgers, starting with a generous dollop of Hellman's, followed by the meat pattie, topped with a slice of tomato, some salad leaves or watercress and a teaspoon of the mushroom and red onion mixture.
Enjoy!
