Ingredients

For the burgers:

50g bulgur wheat, cooked
500g extra-lean lamb mince
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 garlic clove, very finely crushed
Oil, for brushing
4 large burger buns
Sliced tomato and red onion, to serve

For the tzatziki:

5cm piece cucumber, deseeded and coarsely grated
200g pot thick Greek yogurt
2 tbsp chopped mint
20g Blenders Mint Sauce
A handful of fresh mint leaves, to serve

Method

Step 1:

To make the tzatziki, squeeze the juice from the grated cucumber and discard it. Mix the cucumber into the yogurt along with the chopped mint, then drizzle with Blenders Mint Sauce for added flavour.

Step 2:

In a large bowl, combine the cooked bulgur wheat, lamb mince, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, and crushed garlic. Season with salt and pepper, then shape the mixture into four equal-sized burger patties.

Step 3:

Brush the burgers lightly with oil, then fry or grill them over medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side until fully cooked.

Step 4:

Toast the burger buns, if desired, and assemble each burger with a lamb patty, a dollop of tzatziki, sliced tomato, red onion, and a few fresh mint leaves.
