Exotic Morocco Culinary Vacation

Morocco

Small Moroccan Barbequed Lamb Burgers.

2 lbs (pounds) ground lamb

½ tsp ground coriander seed

½ tsp cinnamon

½ tsp ground cumin

½ tsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

Few pinches of sea salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 cloves of minced garlic

How to make them:

1) Mix all ingredients well (by hand is the best method).

2) Use an ice cream scoop to form balls and then work into small lamb burger patties.

3) Grill lamb burgers on the barbeque - grill for a few minutes either side (be careful not too over-cook, otherwise lamb burgers will become dry).

4) Serve lamb burgers on top of broiche bread (or regular burger buns).  Slice the bread or the bun and 'punch out' rounds of bread with a glass. 

5) Blend a tangy yogurt to serve with the burgers - mix 2 cups yogurt, lemon zest, juice of one lemon (the equivalent of ½ a cup), sea salt and 10 grinds of freshly ground pepper. 

6) Place burger on top of bread, add a dallop of yogurt, lettuce and thinly sliced tomatoes and serve.

Bon Appetit!
