Description

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin, more or less, to taste
• 1 pound ground lamb
• salt and freshly ground pepper
• olive oil, as needed
• 6 thick slices Greek feta cheese
• red onion, thinly slice, to taste
• 6 mini or slider buns

Directions

• Preheat cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
• Combine the mayonnaise and ground cumin in a bowl and set aside.
• Season lamb with salt (not too much since the feta cheese might be salty) and pepper and shape into 6 mini patties.Brush each of the patties with a little olive oil and cook to your desired temperature, about 2-3 minutes each side for medium-rare depending on thickness, turning once.
• While the lamb is cooking on one side of the cast iron pan, place the buns on the other side of the pan to toast.
• To assemble the sliders, spread the cumin mayonnaise on the bottom buns. Arrange the lamb patties on top and place a slice of feta cheese on top and garnish with red onions. Serve with extra crispy french fries.
