Recipe for Alsatian Burger

Prepare the sauce: peel and chop the shallot, finely chop the chives, mix with the yogurt, mustard, season with salt and pepper, and set aside in the refrigerator.

For the steaks: peel and chop the shallot, mix with the ground meat, half of the sauerkraut, salt, and pepper. Form 4 steaks of the same thickness. Place 2 slices of bacon side by side and cross with two other slices. Place a steak in the center and fold the bacon over it. Repeat for all the steaks.

Cook the steaks in a hot pan for 5 minutes on each side (depending on the desired doneness). Place on an oven-safe dish, distribute thick slices of cheese over the steaks, and let melt under the oven broiler for a few minutes.

Meanwhile, grill the buns cut in half in the pan, spread with sauce. Place the steaks, add the remaining sauerkraut, sprinkle with caraway seeds, and serve.

To finish Tip: cut 3 heads of lettuce into wedges, season with the remaining dressing, and serve with the burgers.
