Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground lamb
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 150 grams Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 100 grams Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 4 pieces Bread rolls (preferably soft sub rolls or brioche buns)
- 2 tablespoons Butter, softened
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the ground lamb and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Once the lamb has released its juices and started to brown, drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Add ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the lamb. Stir well to evenly coat the meat with the spices.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a small bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese.
Slice the bread rolls in half lengthwise, leaving one side attached to create a hinge.
Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the inside of each roll.
Fill each roll with an even layer of the cooked lamb mixture and top with a generous amount of the shredded cheese mixture.
Place the stuffed sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the sandwiches in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Lamb and Cheese Stuffed Sandwiches!
