Indulge in the succulent and rich flavors of homemade lamb burgers, a delightful alternative to traditional beef burgers. Bursting with juicy goodness and a hint of earthy sweetness, these burgers are sure to elevate dinnertime.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper. Gently mix the ingredients together until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat. Overmixing can result in dense burgers.
Divide the lamb mixture into equal portions, depending on the desired size of your burgers. Shape each portion into a patty, using your hands to form them into round discs of even thickness. Press a slight indentation into the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
Place the lamb patties on the preheated skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, cook until the internal temperature reaches 145F. Adjust the cooking time according to your preference for doneness.
While the patties are cooking, you can toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden. Toasting adds a nice crunch and helps prevent the buns from becoming soggy when topped with condiments.
Now, it's time to savor the mouthwatering delight of homemade lamb burgers. Sink your teeth into the juicy patty with its tantalizing blend of flavors.
