Notes
Tips
- I use a mix of ground turkey to make these leaner with a lighter flavor. But, if you want to use all lamb you can do that.
- You don't need to grease the pan with olive oil as the lamb burgers are full of fat you don't really need it. The only time I'd recommend it is if you're using a stainless steel pan.
- If you want melted cheese, I recommend mozzarella. Add this on when you flip the burgers so it melts easily.
- If you want to add Feta cheese, you can add it on top when assembling the burgers.
- High Altitude — Follow the recipe as noted.
