Haystack Burger with Comeback Sauce Recipe - Home Chef (2)

Don't worry; we aren't giving you a bunch of hay to put on your burgers… you aren't the famous Mr. Ed! “Haystack” is basically talking about one thing: onions (or shallots), onions (or shallots), and onions (or shallots), piled up deliciously on a beautiful burger. We've battered and fried a bunch of sharp shallots, just for that perfect crunchy topping. Save the hay for horses; save this burger for yourself.
