Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F and wash and dry all produce.Garlic Guide in Step 5: 1/4 tsp mild, 1/2 tsp medium and 1 tsp extra. Cut cauliflower into bite-sized pieces. Toss cauliflower with 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) on a baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in middle of oven, stirring halfway through cooking, until golden-brown, 23-25 min.
While cauliflower roasts, roughly chop 1 tbsp oregano leaves (dbl for 4 ppl). Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add panko to the dry pan. Cook, stirring often, until toasted, 2-3 min. Remove the pan from heat, then transfer toasted panko to a plate. Set aside. Carefully wipe the pan clean.
Heat the same pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, 3-4 min. Add 1 tsp sugar (dbl for 4 ppl) and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until dark golden-brown, 3-4 min.
While onions cook, combine beef, oregano, half the garlic and 1/4 tsp salt (dbl for 4 ppl) in a medium bowl. Season with pepper. Form beef mixture into two 4-inch wide burger patties (four patties for 4 ppl). Set aside. When onions are done, remove pan from heat. Stir in vinegar. Transfer onions to another plate and set aside. Carefully wipe pan clean.
Heat same pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then patties. Pan-fry, until patties are cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** Meanwhile, mix mayo and 1/4 tsp remaining garlic (NOTE: Reference Garlic Guide in Start Strong) in a small bowl. Toss roasted cauliflower with half the garlic-mayo in another medium bowl. Sprinkle over toasted panko, then stir to coat.
Set the oven to broil. Halve buns and arrange them, cut-side up, on the baking sheet. Toast buns in middle of oven, until golden, 2-3 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on the buns so they don't burn!) Spread remaining garlic-mayo over bottom buns, then top with patties, caramelized onions, arugula and top bun. Divide burgers and cauliflower frites between plates.
