Make this summer one for the books by giving your standard hamburger a serious upgrade. This charcoal-grilled ground-chuck patty gets dressed up with toppings like grilled onion and eggplant, but the real key to sandwich perfection is the garlic mayo made with Maille Dijon mustard (don't worry, it's easy to make) and tangy Maille cornichons with cayenne chili peppers. Now, light the grill and call a few friends: Summer is waiting.

Directions

Make the garlic-Dijon mayonnaise: In a small bowl, stir all the ingredients together and season with salt; set aside.
Light a grill. Toss the onion and eggplant slices in the olive oil, then season with salt and pepper and place on the grill. Cook, flipping once until charred and tender, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Make the burger: Transfer the meat to a plastic cutting board and divide into 4 equal portions, about 6 ounces each.
Season the burger patties liberally with salt and pepper, and place on the grill. Cook, flipping once, until lightly charred on the outside and medium rare on the inside, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the patties to a clean cutting board and let them rest for a few minutes.
To assemble the burgers, generously spread the garlic mayonnaise on both sides of each burger bun. Place a burger on each bottom bun, then top with a quarter of the mashed avocado, grilled onions, grilled eggplant, sliced tomato, cornichons, arugula and the top bun. Repeat with the remaining burgers and serve.
