Greek Style Lamb Burgers with Olive Mayonnaise
This is a great recipe to make for the long weekend. It is not your typical burger. It is made with lamb and super flavorful. You can substitute beef or turkey if lamb is not preferred… and don’t forget to make those yummy fries from yesterday…
- 2 pounds ground lamb
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano
- ½ cup fresh parsley
- 1 large shallot
- 2 garlic cloves
- ½ cup feta crumbles
- 2 teaspoons salt
Process the oregano, parsley, shallot and garlic in a food processor. Add the mixture to a bowl with the ground lamb. Add the salt and feta and mix and keep for an hour (it can be marinated the night before as well).
Form into 6 patties and keep aside.
Olive Mayonnaise
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup olives, chopped fine
- 1 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Juice of half a lemon
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl. Keep aside.

Grill the burgers and place them on toasted focaccia rolls. Add the olive mayo and serve with potatoes and a salad.
