Ingredients
  • 1 inch ginger root minced fine
  • 2 teaspoons sherry
  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
  • *
  • 1 lb ground lamb
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons molasses
  • 5 dried apricots, diced
  • *
  • 2 tablespoons dried mint
  • 2 tablespoons dried tarragon
  • 1 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp ground allspice
  • 1 sprinkle red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions
  1. In a small dish soak the miced ginger root in the sherry and rice vinegar for about 10 minutes.
  2. 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 :)
  3. Mix the garlic, lamb and molasses, well in a large bowl. Use your hands!
  4. 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.
  5. Form into 3/4 inch thick patties.
  6. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours (separate patties with wax paper if possible).
  7. Preheat the grill to medium heat (direct heat from above on an indoor grill is how I do it).
  8. Grill the patties about 6-7 minutes each side - there must be no pink left inside them. Cut one open to check.
  9. 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.
