      Yield: 4 servings 
  
    1/3 c  Bulgur 
      2 ts Olive oil 
      4 c  Onion(s), sliced (4 med) 
      2 ts Sugar 
      2 ts Balsamic vinegar 
           Salt to taste 
    3/4 lb Lean ground beef 
      2 tb Tomato paste 
    1/4 c  Parsley, chopped 
    1/4 ts Black pepper 
      4    Hamburger buns 
           Split and toasted 
           Lettuce 
  
  In a small bowl, combine the bulgur with  1/2 cup warm water; let stand for 
  30 min, or until the bulgur is tender and the water is absorbed. 
   
  In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil over low heat. Add onions and sugar; 
  saute until the onions are tender and dark golden, about 15 min. Stir in 
  1/4 cup water and vinegar. Season with salt and keep warm. 
   
  Prepare the grill or preheat the broiler. In a medium bowl, combine the 
  bulgur, beef, tomato paste, parsley,  1/2 tsp salt and pepper; mix 
  thoroughly but lightly. Shape into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. Grill over 
  high heat or broil on a lightly oiled rack until browned and cooked 
  through, about 5 min per side. Blot the patties with paper towels. Place 
  each patty on a bun, top with the caramelized onions and garnish with 
  lettuce.
