SPICED LAMB BURGERS
This recipe came from a revelation in the '70s, when my friend Semeon Tsalbins introduced me to the lamb burger. It is ground lamb - shoulder is best - highly seasoned and grilled rare. Because lamb is the most full-flavored of the everyday meats, it makes a more delicious plain burger than beef. Cooked with nothing but salt, it's fantastic. Cooked with a variety of spices, as it is here, it's a game-changer. You can also stuff the burger, as Mr. Tsalbins does on occasion, with smoked mozzarella.

Steps:
- If grilling or broiling, heat should be medium-high and rack about 4 inches from fire. Put lamb and onion into a food processor (in batches if your machine is small) and pulse until coarsely ground. Put in a bowl with chili, coriander, cumin and turmeric, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix, handling the meat as little as possible, until combined. Taste and adjust seasonings. Handling meat as lightly as possible to avoid compressing it, shape it into 4 or more burgers.
- To broil or grill, cook about 3 minutes on each side for rare and another minute per side for each increasing stage of doneness. For stovetop, heat a large skillet over medium heat for 2 or 3 minutes, then add patties; cook, undisturbed, for about 2 minutes, then rotate them so they brown evenly. Turn once and cook for a total of about 6 minutes for rare.
- Garnish with diced mango, green and red pepper, red onion and scallion, and with shredded carrot and lettuce.

LAMB BURGERS
Steps:
- Coat a large saute pan with olive oil, toss in the diced onions and season with salt and crushed red pepper. Bring the pan to medium-high heat and cook the onions for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 to 4 more minutes. Turn the heat off and let cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the lamb, the cooled onion mixture, the dill, mint, oregano, lemon zest and 1/2 to 3/4 cup water. Sprinkle with salt and combine well. Make a little "tester patty," cook it and taste for seasoning.
- Preheat the grill.
- Form the lamb mixture into 4 equal patties and sprinkle with salt. Grill the burgers to your desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the burgers from the grill and let rest for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Cut the Whole-Wheat Pitas in half. Schmear each half generously with the Pickled Feta Spread. Top one half with a burger, then tomatoes, sliced onions and spinach. Place the other pita half on top.
- In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar and yeast and let sit for 15 minutes.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flours, cumin, salt and cayenne. Add the yeast mixture and the olive oil. Mix on medium speed to combine and knead the dough. It should take 6 to 7 minutes. The dough will be firm and not sticky or tacky.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll into 7-inch rounds (1/4-inch thick). Divide the dough between 2 sheet trays, cover them loosely with a clean tea towel or plastic wrap and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Bake the pitas for 3 to 4 minutes, then turn the pitas over and bake for 2 more minutes. Let cool and use as desired.
- Place the vinegar, sugar, salt, tea bags, bay leaf and herb stems, if using, in a small saucepan along with 1 cup water. Heat until the sugar and salt has dissolved. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Place the feta in a small container. Add the vinegar mixture and be sure that the feta is submerged in the liquid. Let sit for a couple of hours outside the refrigerator if using right away, or in the refrigerator if using in the future.
- Strain the feta from the pickling liquid and discard the tea bags, bay leaf and stems. Place the feta in a food processor and add the yogurt. Pulse until combined.
GINGER & SPICE LAMB BURGER FOR ONE
I threw this together one Saturday evening and I thought it came out a winner. It has a lovely tang from the hot sauce and ginger/soy. I used a prepared Ginger sauce(1 tbsp) however in the recipe I changed it to 1 Tbsp Teriaki sauce and 1/2 tsp grated ginger because it may not be available everywhere..Just repeat as many times as you wish. Make it as hot as you want or tame it a bit. Great served with oven Fries

FIVE SPICE LAMB BURGERS WITH PICKLED CUCUMBER RELISH AND FIVE SPICE AIOLI
Steps:
- For the aioli:
- In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, lime juice, and five-spice powder. Refrigerate the aioli until ready to use.
- For the relish:
- In a saute pan over medium-high heat, toast the coriander seeds until fragrant. Drizzle in the vegetable oil, add the red onion and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent. Stir in the chile and white wine vinegar, and then sprinkle over the sugar, stirring until it dissolves.
- Add the cucumber to the pan, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes over medium heat, and reduce slightly, achieving a light glaze consistency. Season the relish with salt, and let the mixture cool.
- Just before serving the relish, stir in the mint, and season with salt, to taste.

Divide and shape the lamb mixture into 4 (8-ounce) burger patties. Place the patties in the refrigerator for 1 hour, to allow the flavors to infuse.

Tips:
- Use ground lamb with a higher fat content (at least 80%). This will help keep the burgers moist and flavorful.
- Mix in some bread crumbs or oats to help bind the burgers. This will also help prevent them from falling apart on the grill.
- Season the burgers generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or chili powder.
- Form the burgers into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick. This will help them cook evenly.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 4 minutes per side. This will give them a nice sear on the outside and cook them through on the inside.
- Serve the burgers on buns with your favorite toppings. Some classic choices include lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese.
Conclusion:
These ginger spice lamb burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make weeknight meal. They're packed with flavor and can be cooked in just a few minutes. Serve them on buns with your favorite toppings for a satisfying and satisfying meal.
