Ingredients

For the Mint Sauce

  • 1 cup mayo (homemade or Primal Kitchen Brand)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup packed mint leaves
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • salt and pepper, to taste

For the Burgers

  • 1 lb ground lamb
  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • salt and pepper, to taste

For Serving

  • baby arugula
  • sliced tomatoes
  • sliced red onion
  • sliced cucumbers

Instructions

  • Combine all of the mint sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • In a bowl, combine the lamb, dried oregano, and cumin with salt and pepper to taste. Using your hands, knead the meat until the spices are just combined (don't overwork the meat).
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill over medium-high heat. If I am using a cast iron, I like to spray avocado oil or olive oil on the bottom of the skillet. Grill the burgers on both sides until it is cooked to your liking, I did mine for about 4 minutes per side in a cast-iron skillet.
  • Serve burgers over baby arugula, sliced tomatoes, some marinated cucumbers and red onions (optional), and with the mint sauce.
