Ingredients

Burgers:

1 lb ground beef

2 tsps ground cumin

1 T chopped fresh oregano or 1 tsp dried leaf oregano

1/2 tsp salt

Dash of ground red pepper

Dash of black pepper

2 T red wine

Pita bread

Lettuce

Chopped tomatoes

Yogurt Sauce:

2 cups plain yogurt

1 cup chopped red onion

1 cup chopped cucumber

1/4 cup chopped fresh mint or 1 1/2 T dried leaf mint

1 T chopped fresh marjoram or 1 tsp dried leaf marjoram

Directions

Prepare Yogurt Sauce:

Combine Yogurt Sauce ingredients in small bowl. Cover; chill up to 4 hours before ready to serve.

For the burgers:

Soak 4 bamboo skewers in water. Combine meat, seasonings and wine in medium bowl; mix lightly. Divide mixture into eight equal portions; form each portion into an oval, each about 4 inches long. Cover; chill 30 minutes.

Preheat grill. Insert skewers lengthwise through centers of ovals, placing 2 on each skewer. Grill about 8 minutes or to desired doneness, turning once. Fill pita bread with lettuce, meat and chopped tomatoes. Serve with Yogurt Sauce. (Try a small squeeze of lemon or even lime in your yogurt sauce!)
