Chanterelle burger with goat's cheese

Recipe
Nordics
Burgers
Mushrooms

Creativity knows no bounds. Inspired by American cuisine, this recipe shows that Nordic cuisine also incorporates international influences and implements them regionally. Mushrooms play a central role in Scandinavian culture and the forests offer an endless wealth of different varieties.

Brian Bojsen

Ingredients (4 servings)
1 kg beef (approx. 40 % fat content, rump or neck)
salt and pepper from the mill
400 g chanterelles
4 small onions
4 cloves of garlic
4 tablespoon(s) rapeseed oil
4 thumb-thick slices of fresh goat's cheese
4 large burger buns
truffle mayonnaise (1 jar of mayonnaise with a few spoonfuls of truffle oil)
1 handful of rocket leaves
4-8 tablespoon(s) cranberry jam
  • First mince the beef, season with salt and pepper and shape into 4 equal-sized patties.
  • Clean the chanterelles with a mushroom brush, cut the larger ones into quarters and the smaller ones into halves.
  • Now peel and finely dice the onions and garlic.
  • Heat a heavy pan until it is smoking. Then add 1 tbsp rapeseed oil (not olive oil - it doesn't get hot enough).
  • Now fry the chanterelles in the oil until they brown and continue frying until they no longer lose any water.
  • Reduce the heat and add the diced onion and garlic. Fry them until they soften.
  • Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a plate.
  • Then heat about 2 tbsp rapeseed oil in a pan and sear the patties on both sides. If you like them pink on the inside, 2 minutes per side is enough, or reduce the heat and fry for 4 minutes per side.
  • After turning once, place 1 slice of fresh goat's cheese on each fried side. This should melt on the hot patties.
  • Meanwhile, heat a grill pan and grease the sliced burger bread halves with the remaining rapeseed oil.
  • Now brown briefly in the grill pan or in the oven with the grill function.
  • Then assemble the burger. Spread the truffle mayonnaise on the underside of the buns and garnish with rocket.
  • Then place the patty on top and put a dollop of cranberry jam on the goat's cheese. Place the chanterelles on top and close the lid.
  • Serve immediately to keep the roll crispy.

Tip:

Falstaff Wine Recommendation

2022 Rose Marie Æble
Andersen Winery, Aarhus, Denmark

Sparkling fruit wine made from apple and summer berries. Notes of apple, pineapple, citrus and some cassis on the nose. Crisp acidity on the palate, surrounded by a suitable residual sweetness.
