Equipment
Ingredients
Burger Sauce:
- 2/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
- 1/4 cup finely minced yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons dill or sweet relish
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Fries:
- 32 oz frozen French fries
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 large yellow onion diced
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 6-8 slices American cheese
Instructions
Cook the fries:
- Cook the fries according to package instructions. I prefer to air fry them when I can!
Caramelize the onion:
- While the fries cook, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and once the butter is melted and foamy, add the diced onion. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is deeply golden. Season with salt and pepper.
Mix the burger sauce:
- Combine all the burger sauce ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Preheat an oven to 400 F.
Bake the fries:
- Spread the cooked fries out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper so that the fries are all fairly close together.
- Arrange the cheese slices over the top to mostly cover the fries. Bake for 5-8 minutes, until the fries are hot, and the cheese is melted.
- Finish. Top the fries with the caramelized onions. Drizzle all over with the burger sauce and serve right away.
