Patty Melt

Patty-Melt


 
 
Funny thing about this post is that as an American, and having been to many cities throughout the country, I had never had a Patty Melt. Although consider to be an American classic diner sandwich, I had never even truly heard of one until a few years ago. I always thought when someone mentioned it that they were talking about a tuna melt sandwich. Anyways, I thought I would give it a try and see what the talk was all about. Patty Melt
 
Ingredients:
 
  • 2 burger patties
  • 4 slices of Rye bread
  • 1/2 large white onion sliced
  • 2 slices of Swiss cheese
  • Mayo
  • 2 tbs butter
 
1. Cook burger patties as usual.


2. Saute onions over medium heat in butter slowly until tender, brown, and sweet. This takes about 15-20 minutes and requires you continue to stir around and mix up.


3. Once onions and burger patties are finished the fun part begins. Spread some butter one side of each piece of rye bread.


4. Just like making a grilled cheese, lay one slice of bread, butter side down on hot griddle. Top with burger patty, some caramelized onions, and Swiss.


5. Quickly spread some mayo on the non buttered side of another piece of bread and place on top.


6. Cook on both sides like a grilled cheese until brown and crisp.
