How to make
1Grate the onion with a box grater.
2To make the sauce, mix the mayo, mustard, cornichons and pickled onions and season.
3To make the burgers, put the mince, onion, celery salt and parsley in a bowl. Season with pepper and mix well, then divide into four balls. Form each ball into a thin patty – they will shrink as they cook so make the burgers larger than your buns.
4Pan fry the prosciutto for 2-3 minutes until crisp and remove.
5Heat grill to hot or a large, heavy frying pan. Oil and season the burgers and grill until patties are cooked through.
6Place a slice of provolone on top of each burger patty and grill for 2 minutes until the cheese is melted.
7Add some lettuce to each D’Italiano® Original Crustini Buns. Sit a burger patty on top, add the crispy prosciutto, spoon over the sauce and put on the bun top.
