Lamb hamburger with feta and mint
Lamb and mint are an ideal couple and they really pack a punch when teamed with Turkish spices and a little feta. Feel free to juggle toppings according to your taste, but, we’re partial to arugula which adds a welcome freshness to the hamburgers. If you have a little bit of raita or tzatziki lying around the fridge, this would be the ideal time to use them.
Patties
