Ingredients

• 6 oz Ground lamb
• 1 tsp Fresh ginger (grated)
• 1 clove Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 tsp Ground cumin
• 0.5 tsp Ground coriander
• 0.25 tsp Smoked paprika
• 0.25 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 tsp Lemon juice
• 1 tsp Fresh mint leaves (chopped)
• 1 Burger bun (toasted)
• 2 Lettuce leaves
• 2 Tomato slices

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, grated ginger, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined but do not overmix.

Step 2

Form the mixture into a patty that is slightly larger than the burger bun, as it will shrink during cooking.

Step 3

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once hot, place the lamb patty in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on one side until browned.

Step 4

Flip the burger and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for medium doneness.

Step 5

While the burger cooks, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and chopped mint leaves in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt if desired.

Step 6

Toast the burger bun lightly in the same skillet or on a toaster if preferred.

Step 7

Assemble the burger by placing lettuce and tomato slices on the bottom half of the bun. Top with the lamb patty, a generous dollop of the yogurt sauce, and the top bun.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Ginger Spice Lamb Burger!
