These lamb burgers made with lamb mince are great for the barbecue or grill and use only five ingredients.
INGREDIENTS
- 450g lamb mince
- 25g dried apricots, finely chopped
- 25g shelled pistachio nuts or almonds, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped coriander or mint
- Grated zest and juice of ½ lemon
METHOD
- In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients together.
- Using slightly damp hands shape the mixture into 4 x 9cm burgers. Cover and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes.
- Cook the burgers on a prepared barbecue or preheated moderate grill for 6-8 minutes on each side until cooked and any meat juices run clear.
- Serve the burgers in a burger bun with a salad garnish and a selection of relishes.
TIP
As an alternative, shape with mince mixture into mini meatballs or koftas, mould onto small metal skewers then cook as required and serve as mini kebabs.
