serves 6
Lamb Patties
fresh cilantro leaves (about 1 cup)
mint and basil leaves (about 1 cup total)
1 cup Greek style yogurt
1 tablespoon ground cumin
4 teaspoons McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning (garlic salt with cayenne and other peppers)
1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
1 or 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Mint-Yogurt Sauce
1 cup plain yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped mint leaves
salt (to taste)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, minced
We like to serve these lamb patties on a bed of lentils (we just heat pre-steamed lentils from Trader Joe's and mix in a little chopped red pepper, sliced green onion and lemon juice). Then we surround the patties with arugula that has been tossed with olive oil, champagne vinegar, salt and pepper, and top the patties with a dollop of the Mint-Yogurt Sauce, chopped tomatoes and cucumber. Of course, you could always serve them as an elegant "hamburger" on a bun or in pita bread.
