Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
1 cup chopped green onions (about 4)
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup plain yogurt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
4 6-inch-diameter pita breads, top 1/4 cut off each
1 cup diced seeded plum tomatoes

Steps:

  • Combine lamb, 1/2 cup onions, 1 teaspoon salt, pumpkin pie spice, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper in medium bowl. Mix gently. Using moistened hands, form lamb mixture into 4 equal patties, each about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Combine yogurt, cumin, remaining 1/2 cup onions, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper in small bowl. Stir to blend. Let stand 15 minutes.
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill burgers until cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium.
  • Carefully open pita breads to make pockets; insert burger in each. Spoon in yogurt mixture and tomatoes, dividing equally, and serve.

I wasn't a big fan of these burgers. The lamb was a little too gamey for my taste.

These burgers were a little dry, but the tzatziki sauce helped to make them more moist. I would recommend using a higher fat content ground lamb.

The burgers were a little dry, but the tzatziki sauce helped to make them more moist. The flavors were good, but I would probably add some more spices next time.

These burgers were so easy to make and they tasted amazing! I used ground beef instead of lamb, and they were still really flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the burgers turned out perfectly. I grilled them over medium heat for about 8 minutes per side, and they were cooked through but still juicy. The tzatziki sauce was also delicious.
