Inspried by SitByNellie's wonderful Spicy Lamb Patties. The addition of ginger root and dried apricots with the wonderful inspiration of spices provided by SitByNellie converts this to a different but similar dish.

Ingredients
- 1 inch ginger root minced fine shopping list
- 2 teaspoons sherry shopping list
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar shopping list
- * shopping list
- 1 lb ground lamb shopping list
- 2 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 2 teaspoons molasses shopping list
- 5 dried apricots, diced shopping list
- * shopping list
- 2 tablespoons dried mint shopping list
- 2 tablespoons dried tarragon shopping list

How to make it
- In a small dish soak the miced ginger root in the sherry and rice vinegar for about 10 minutes.
- I prefer to make the spice mixtures separately in a small dish then add it to the meat mixture. This is a practice I began after making terrible mistakes dumping too much of a spice into the main ingredients. This way I can just take out as much as I like and add it. If I have extra spices they go into a "secret seasonings" container whose secret will never be known :)
- Mix the garlic, lamb and molasses, well in a large bowl. Use your hands!
- Add the spices, ginger and liquid to the lamb and mix again. I recommend you add the liquid from the dish a bit at a time until the conistency feels right to you.
- Form into 3/4 inch thick patties.
- Refrigerate for 3-4 hours (separate patties with wax paper if possible).
- Preheat the grill to medium heat (direct heat from above on an indoor grill is how I do it).
- Grill the patties about 6-7 minutes each side - there must be no pink left inside them. Cut one open to check.
- The recipe makes about 6 patties but may make more or less, depending on exactly how thick they are. The nutrition values shown below assumes 6 patties.
