Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lamb Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the lamb mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty.

  3. 3

    Grill the Burgers

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill with olive oil to prevent sticking. Cook the lamb patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Basil Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, chopped fresh basil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill. Spread a generous amount of basil aioli on the bottom half of each bun, place the grilled lamb patty on top, and cover with the top half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Moroccan spiced lamb burgers with your choice of starch, such as fries or couscous.
