Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds ground lamb

3/4 tsp Mediterranean Oregano Leaves

1/2 tsp Thyme Leaves

1/4 tsp Ground Cayenne Red Pepper

2 tsp Fennel Seed

1 tbsp Parsley Flakes

3/4 tsp Paprika

1/4 tsp Coarse Grind Black Pepper

2 tsp Coriander Seed

4 shallots, finely diced

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp salt

Cumin Yogurt:

1/4 tsp Cumin Seed

1/2 cup yogurt, plain

1 pinch Coarse Grind Black Pepper

1/8 tsp salt

Directions

In a preheated, dry skillet, toast the fennel and coriander seeds over a medium heat for around 30 seconds, or until the seeds disperse an aroma. Remove from skillet then crush the seeds in small bowl, or with a mortar and pestle. In the same skillet, saute the shallots in olive oil until they become translucent and just starting to release an aroma. Add in the oregano and thyme, then remove immediately from the heat and place aside.

Mix together the lamb, remaining spices, and salt in a medium-sized bowl. Combine gently, then create 6 patties.

In a preheated, dry skillet, toast the cumin seeds, over medium heat, for about 30 seconds (or until aromatic.) Remove them from the skillet, anc crush as you did with the fennel and coriander seeds. Combine the yogurt with the toasted cumin, salt and pepper then place aside.

Over a medium heat, grill the burgers to your desired doneness. Then, serve with grilled sourdough bread or hamburger buns and top with cumin yogurt.

My husband loved this, although I left out the fennel and used pre-ground spices rather than roasting. We cooked them on the grill then topped them with grilled eggplant marinated in lemon juice, olive oil, & garlic.
