The original recipe is for 4 patties, but we doubled it since they were so good!
Ingredients
4 oz crumbled feta
1 cup Greek yogurt
4 tbl milk
1 red onion
2 cucumbers
2 lbs ground lamb
Parsley - fresh or dried (you will use about an entire .25oz container
Ras el hanout seasoning (or make your own below)
Salt
Black pepper
8 pitas - we used whole wheat
Hummus - I like plain
Combine these ingredients, and refrigerate & cover until ready to serve
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 cup crumbled feta (4 oz)
4 tbl milk (I used 2%)
4 tbl grated cucumber
2 tbl chopped parsley
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Burger - Directions
1. Turn on the grill to medium-high
2. Combine the below and form 8 patties. Flattening them out will make it a little easier to eat with the pita
2 lbs ground lamb
6 tbl chopped parsley
4 tbl grated red onion
3 tsp ras el hanout
1 tsp salt
3. Grill 4 to 5 minutes on each side. During the last minute, grill the pitas, flipping once.
4. Spread 2 tbl hummus on each pita, then layer with sliced cucumber, red onion, burger, yogurt sauce and parsley
