- 1.5 teaspoons Za'atar spice blend
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika (not sweet)
- salt/pepper
- 4-6 tablespoons crumbled feta
- olive oil
- 4-6 buns (I used ciabatta type rolls)
- Tzatziki sauce (recipe below)
- sliced tomato, red onion, fresh spinach, and sliced black olives for garnish
- Tzatziki
- 1/2 seedless cucumber- peeled
- 2 cloves garlic- minced
- 1 teaspoon each salt & pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika (not sweet)
- 1/2-3/4 cups crumbled feta
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 3 tablespoons chopped mint
- juice from half a lemon
Directions
-
1Mix together lamb, beef, onion, garlic, parsley, za'atar, oregano, paprika, and s&p until well combined.
-
2separate meat mixture into 4-6 balls, depending on how big you and your guests want the burgers (I made one biggun, 2 medium, and 2 small.) To stuff with feta: flatten into a pretty flat oblong shape, and add about a tablespoon of feta to half. Fold the other half over, squish to seal the edges, and flatten to desired patty flatness. I like mine more patty shaped, less ball shaped. Put patties on plate, brush with olive oil, sprinkle with a pinch more hyssop, paprika, s&p.
-
3Light BBQ and brush grill with olive oil. Grill burgers, turning once, for about 10 minutes total- until desired doneness. Grill buns.
-
4On bottom half of bun, make a bed of spinach and olives for burger, add burger, and top with red onion, tomato, and tzatziki! Savor your first delicious bite, because you just showed that lamb who's boss!
-
5Grate cucumber and squeeze out then discard excess liquid. Whisk to combine all ingredients. Serve with delicious lamburgers and Greek fries!
