Harissa Lamb Burgers with Feta taken from the Quick After-Work Cookbook.
Ingredients
- Red onion 1 small, peeled and halved
- Lean minced lamb 250g (9oz)
- Harissa paste 1 tbsp
- Feta cheese 110g (4oz), crumbled
- Finely chopped mint 3 tbsp, plus extra to serve
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
-
Cucumber ¼, diced
- Greek yogurt 3 tbsp
- Little Gem lettuce a few leaves
- 2 baps, halved and toasted
Directions
- Cut a few slices of onion and reserve for serving, then finely chop the rest. Tip the lamb into a bowl and add the chopped onion, harissa, Feta, 2 tablespoons mint, a little salt (as the Feta is quite salty) and plenty of black pepper. Mix together well. Divide in half and roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into a burger shape
Heat a lightly oiled griddle pan or frying pan and cook the burgers for 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through. Meanwhile, make tzatziki in a small bowl: mix the cucumber with the Greek yogurt and remaining mint and a little salt and pepper
- To serve, place some lettuce on the bottom half of each bap, top with a little torn mint, the burger, then some tzatziki and the reserved sliced onion and the top of the bap
