2 pounds ground lamb
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons Madras curry powder
2 cups Greek yogurt
1 English cucumber, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 medium vine-ripened tomatoes, chopped

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

I didn't have any parsley, so I used cilantro instead. It was still delicious!

The lamb burgers were a bit dry, but the tzatziki sauce helped.
