1/2 cup red Burgundy wine
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 shallot, finely chopped

4 cornichon pickles or 4 baby gherkins, thinly sliced lengthwise

Steps:

In a large bowl, combine the beef, wine, thyme, and shallot; season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.
Score the mixture into 4 equal portions and form them into large patties slightly thinner at the center than at the edges for even cooking and to ensure a flat surface.
Drizzle the patties with oil.

Place the burgers on the roll bottoms; top with pate and lettuce.
Spread mustard on the roll tops and scatter the sliced cornichons over the mustard.
