Lamb Burger Recipes

Lamb on a bun

Confession time - my wife and I used to disagree on whether or not she liked lamb. I assured her that she did and when she finally - and exasperatedly - asked how I knew, I replied "remember those burgers I made on Friday - the ones you said were the best burger you ever had? That was lamb!"

And that's the story behind the name of the burger.

Don't worry, she's since forgiven me.

Second confession - these are a little bit of work as I prefer, and strongly recommend, getting bone-in lamb chops as they have more flavor. And, yes, you'll need to have a way to grind the meat or ask your meat department to do it for you.

Spicey lamb burgers with salad

great source of potassium

Taken fron Rosemary Conley's Gi Jeans Diet Book. Grilling the LEAN lamb actually reduces the fat content to 6.8gms fat per serving, and the calories to 237kcal. Thus making this a reasonably low fat recipe. (ingredients can be divided or multiplied to suit number of diners). Serve with 100gms new potatoes( with skins), and vegetables.( total meal approx 400kcal)

Our local market makes these burgers and this is an attempt to mimic the recipe.
