Gluten Free Mediterranean Lamb Burgers
When my friend came to visit from Australia I knew she would enjoy a dinner celebrating Alberta lamb so we made Grilled Lamb Burgers.
Servings 6 people
Ingredients
BURGERS
- 1½ lb ground lamb
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 8-12 slices gluten free bread, toasted (we like Udi's Millet-Chia bread)
TOPPINGS
- olive mayonnaise (see below)
- tadziki
- thinly sliced red onion
- thinly sliced cucumber
- arugula
OLIVE MAYONNAISE
- 2 tablespoon olive tapenade or pitted, chopped Kalamata olives
- ½ cup Miracle Whip or homemade mayonnaise
Instructions
- In a bowl gently combine ground lamb, oregano, garlic, coriander, cumin, salt, pepper and egg.
- Shape into 4-6 patties and place on a tray lined with wax paper.
- Grill patties 3-5 minutes per side, turning once. Resist the urge to push on the patties and squeeze out the juice, you want all that flavour.
- Toast bread slices. Allow people to dress their burgers to taste offering olive mayonnaise, tadziki, red onion, cucumber and arugula.
