Sandwich Ingredients- 1 Hamburger bun
- 1 Onion
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- 4 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp Sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
- 3 Eggs
- 2 Tbsp Unsalted butter
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, slice the hamburger bun in half and toast it lightly in a dry pan until golden brown. A slightly crisp exterior adds a wonderful texture.
Step 2
Let’s make the signature sriracha mayo! In a small bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon of sriracha sauce. Stir well until smooth. You can adjust the amount of sriracha to suit your spice preference.
Step 3
Wash the onion thoroughly. Trim off the ends and cut it in half vertically. Then, slice each half thinly along the grain (perpendicular to the root). This slicing method ensures the onions become tender and sweet when cooked.
Step 4
Heat a pan over medium-low heat without any oil. Add the sliced onions and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions become translucent and then start to caramelize, developing a deep, sweet flavor. Be patient and let them cook slowly to achieve the best result, ensuring they don’t burn.
Step 5
Now, let’s prepare the wonderfully fluffy scrambled eggs. In a non-stick skillet, add 3 eggs and 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Turn the heat to medium and gently whisk the eggs and butter together. Allow the butter to melt and incorporate smoothly into the eggs.
Step 6
Using a silicone spatula, gently stir the eggs in a circular motion, pushing the cooked parts from the edges towards the center. As the whites begin to set, continue to fold and stir, creating soft, creamy curds. Cook until the eggs are just set and still moist – avoid overcooking. If you have chives, chopped scallions, or parsley, finely chop them and sprinkle over the eggs for an extra touch of freshness. Gently gather the scrambled eggs into a cohesive mound.
Step 7
Generously spread the prepared sriracha mayo sauce on the cut sides of the toasted hamburger bun halves. This will add a delightful kick and moisture to the sandwich.
Step 8
Time to assemble your masterpiece! Place a generous portion of the fluffy scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of the bun. On the top half of the bun, artfully arrange the sweet caramelized onions.
Step 9
Add two slices of cheddar cheese on top of the scrambled eggs. The melting cheese will help bind everything together. Finally, place the top bun, with the onions, onto the sandwich.
Step 10
Congratulations! Your delicious and satisfying Eggslut Fairfax Sandwich is ready to be enjoyed. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
