Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground lamb
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 tbsp Fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped (for sauce)
- 4 Hamburger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 4 Tomato slices
- 4 Red onion slices
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Mix gently with your hands until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the lamb mixture into four equal portions and form into burger patties about 3/4-inch thick.
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Cook the lamb patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for medium doneness.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the rosemary mint sauce. In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, chopped mint, lemon juice, and the remaining rosemary. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the skillet or in a toaster, if desired.
Assemble the lamburgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a lamb patty, a slice of tomato, and a slice of red onion.
Drizzle the rosemary mint sauce generously over the lamb patty, then top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your juicy lamburgers with rosemary mint sauce!
