Steps:
- Finely mince the mint and parsley, and peel and chop the onion.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, chopped onion, 4 tablespoons each of the mint and parsley, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Mix well using your hands until everything is evenly combined, and form the mixture into burger patties. Set aside.
- To make the sauce, combine Greek yogurt, the remaining 1 tablespoon each of mint and parsley, remaining 1/4 teaspoon cumin, and a pinch of salt and cayenne pepper, as desired. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add 1-2 teaspoons olive oil. Stir well and keep in the fridge while you cook the burgers and prep the salad.
- Cook the lamb burgers on an oiled grill rack or in a heavy frying pan over medium-high heat, for about 5 minutes on each side, until they reach an internal temperature of 160F.
- While burgers cook, prep the salad. Combine halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, olive oil, and red wine vinegar in a small bowl. Sprinkle feta on top.
- Serve burgers warm with the salad, yogurt sauce, and pita bread, as desired. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Add the cumin, coriander, oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, cinnamon and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt to a small bowl and stir to combine. Add the ground lamb to a large bowl and break up slightly with a fork. Add the spice mixture to the lamb and using clean hands, mix the meat so the spice mixture is evenly dispersed. Form the meat into 4 equal size patties to fit the size of the buns.
- Brush the grates of an outdoor grill with oil and preheat to medium-high. On one side of the grill add the burgers and cook until the internal temperature is 145 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the burgers to a plate. Once you remove the burgers, place the buns, cut side- down on the grill to lightly toast, about 2 minutes.
- To assemble burgers: Lay buns on a clean work surface, cut side-up. Spread the Tzatziki Sauce evenly on the top and bottom halves of the buns. Place a patty on each of the bottom buns and top with Charred Tomatoes and Feta. Place the top buns on and serve.
- Grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater. Using clean hands, squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the cucumber. Add it to a small bowl and stir in the sour cream, dill, lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Add the tomatoes to a large bowl and place the onions on top. Add the olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt and, using clean hands, rub the onions so they are coated in olive oil, but try to keep them intact in their rings. Lay the onions on a plate or rimmed baking sheet. The residual salt and oil will have dripped down to the tomatoes, so give them a slight toss to coat them. Skewer the tomatoes on a metal or wood skewer. This will help them not fall through the grates of the grill. (If using a wood skewer then be sure to soak in water for 30 minutes before using.)
- Brush the grates of an outdoor grill with oil and preheat to medium-high. Add the onions and tomatoes and grill until the onions are charred in places and the tomatoes are slightly bursting, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the onions and tomatoes and add to a medium bowl. Using kitchen shears, roughly cut up the onions and tomatoes. Add the crumbled feta and toss to combine. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- Set 4 whole garlic cloves in a small skillet over medium-high heat; toast until spotty brown, about 5 minutes. Peel, mince and set aside.
- Break up lamb in a medium bowl. Sprinkle roasted garlic, feta, oregano, salt and pepper over meat; stir with a fork to combine. Divide into 4 portions. Toss meat back and forth between cupped hands to form a ball. Pat with fingertips to flatten to about 4 inches wide. Refrigerate.
- Mix cucumber, sour cream, mint, vinegar, 1 minced clove of garlic, and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Refrigerate sauce until ready to serve.
- Build a hot fire on one side of grill. Replace rack. When coals are covered with white ash, add burgers. Cover and cook, turning only once, until done, about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium to medium-well burgers.
- Grill pitas until spotty brown and warm, a minute or so per side. Split crosswise. Spread a couple of tablespoons of sauce over 4 pita halves. Top each with an onion slice, a tomato slice and a burger. Spread a portion of the remaining sauce over each burger. Top with remaining pita halves.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the lamb, garlic, feta, allspice, parsley, salt and pepper, making sure not to overwork the mixture. Form the lamb mixture into 4 to 6 patties.
- Heat a grill pan over moderately-high heat and cook the lamb burgers until a nice crust forms, about 4 minutes. Turn the burgers over and let cook another 4 minutes. Let the burgers rest 10 minutes. Serve topped with Easy Tzatziki on a roll or bun.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Chill.
- What Really Makes This Recipe Sing: Allspice is one of those secret weapons in savory foods. You can't put your finger on it, but you know it is there. It was named by the English, because they thought it contained cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Shh, it is also the secret ingredient in Cincinnati-style chili.
- What to toss in if you have it: Feel free to add some chopped fresh mint to this as well. Having a cocktail party? BYOC and makes these into mini's. Grab one before you serve because they will disappear fast.

Steps:
- To prepare burgers: In a large bowl, combine lamb, feta, mint and salt and pepper to taste. Divide evenly into four balls. Flatten each ball into a patty no more than 3/4 of an inch thick.
- In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat enough oil to just coat the bottom.
- Place burgers in hot skillet; cook about 10 minutes, reducing the heat if the burgers seem to be browning too quickly. After 10 minutes, turn the burgers and continue to cook, adjusting the heat as needed to ensure they are cooked all the way through, about 10 more minutes.
- To prepare salad: While burgers are cooking, combine tomatoes, cucumber, mint, vinegar, oil and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- To serve, place burgers on individual plates; spoon tomato-cucumber salad over each one.

LAMB BURGERS WITH FETA CHEESE
These cheeseburgers with a Middle-Eastern tang were introduced to The Times in 1987 by Pierre Franey, who wrote about them in "60-Minute Gourmet." They are made of ground lamb sprinkled with cumin, salt and pepper, and topped with crumbled feta cheese. Mr. Franey broiled the burgers, but they are just as good - arguably better - prepared on the grill. "A good dish to serve with the lamb burgers," Mr. Franey wrote, "is broiled and baked eggplant and tomatoes."

Steps:
- Divide lamb into 8 portions of equal size. Shape each into a patty and sprinkle on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle top of each patty with an equal amount of cumin and rosemary. Pat to help the herb and spice adhere.
- Patties may be broiled or cooked in a skillet. If broiled, preheat broiler to high. Place patties on a baking sheet and place about 3 inches from source of heat. Broil them 2 minutes if you wish them rare, 4 minutes for well done. Turn patties and cook 1 minute if you wish them rare, 2 minutes for well done.
- If patties are cooked in a skillet, select one large enough to hold them in one layer. Brush skillet with a little oil and heat thoroughly on stove. Cook patties over moderately high heat for 2 minutes if you wish them rare, 4 minutes if well done. Turn patties and continue cooking 1 minute for rare, 2 minutes for well done.
- However the patties are cooked, top each with a portion of feta cheese.
- Place under broiler, preheated to high, about 3 inches from the source of heat. Let broil about 1 minute. Dot center of each patty with half a teaspoon of finely chopped parsley.
