Ingredients
- 10 medium onions
- 6 egg yolks
- 50 Kobe Beef Sliders
- 1 1/2 cups minced tarragon
- 5 cups oil
- 2/3 cup champagne vinegar
- 3 cloves garlic
- 6 teaspoons salt
- Olive Oil
- 50 Small Slider Buns
- 2 tablespoons water
- pepper(optional)
- grape seed oil(optional)
- peanut oil(optional)
- clarified butter(optional)
Instructions
Step 1
Slice onions into ¼ inch slices.
Step 2
Heat a wide pan or wide dutch oven to medium-high with olive oil to coat the bottom, then add the sliced onions.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium. Cook onions for 20-30 minutes without stirring, allowing them to brown on one side.
Step 4
Flip the onions to ensure even browning.
Step 5
Continue to flip/stir the onions a few more times. Add 2 tablespoons of water as needed to release the fond and prevent burning.
Step 6
Cook until onions are perfectly browned. This process should take within an hour.
Step 7
To make the Tarragon Aioli, add egg yolks, garlic, champagne vinegar, and 6 teaspoons of salt to a food processor. Pulse until ingredients are chopped and the egg mixture is frothy.
Step 8
With the food processor running, slowly add 5 cups of oil until the mixture is thick.
Step 9
Add minced tarragon, and salt and pepper to taste, then pulse to combine.
Step 10
Prepare the Kobe Beef Sliders by grilling or pan-frying. If grilling, remove from box and cook. If pan-frying, use a high-heat oil (such as grape seed or peanut oil) and cook on high for a couple minutes on each side to get a nice sear.
Step 11
Prepare the buns: Cut buns and brush them with clarified butter or olive oil, then grill or toast until golden.
Step 12
Assemble the sliders: Spread one side of each bun generously with aioli, then add a cooked burger and some caramelized onions.
