  • 1 small onion minced
  • 1 egg lightly beaten

  • 2 tablspoon choped mint leaves
  • 2 tablespoon chopped freshly parlsey
  • 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese optional
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • a pinch Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red chili
  • salt to taste
  • 2 teaspoon olive oil

For The Burger

  • 1 cup coleslaw salad
  • few tomato slices
  • salad leaves

For Coleslaw

  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 small carrot grated
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • a pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions
 

To make Coleslaw

  • Make coleslaw by combining all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • Mix until well combined.
  • Top with fresh mint leaves to add a delicious flavour to your lamb burgers.

To Make Lamb Burgers

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degree C.
  • Lightly grease a baking tray with olive oil.
  • For the dry rub, pound all the ingredients in a pestle and mortar until combined.
  • Take it out in a mixing bowl and divide the minced mixture into 4 pieces.
  • Pat each piece into a ball then squash into a burger, about 1.5 cm thick.
  • Place the burgers on the greased baking tray. Drizzle some olive oil over the burger patties and cook in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on how well you like your burgers done.
  • You can cook burgers on your barbecue grill or in a griddle pan for 6 to 7 minutes each side, or until done to your liking.
  • Don’t worry if you think they look burnt, that’s just a combination of the spices, the caramelising lamb fat and the smoke.
  • When the burgers are nearly ready, toast the buns on the side of the barbecue or griddle pan.
  • To serve, spread some coleslaw on the toasted buns, top with the burger patties, tomato and olives and squash them into the buns. Enjoy!!
