Method
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into a mixing bowl.
Add a quarter of a cup of garlic aioli and quarter of a cup of Greek style yoghurt into the bowl.
Chop two tablespoons of fresh mint leaves and add to the bowl.
Add a pinch of salt, stir to combine, and set aside.
To prepare the patties, add the red onion, rosemary, crushed garlic and olive oil together in a pan.
Cook over a low heat, stirring frequently until the onions are soft, fragrant and caramelised – approximately 10 minutes – then set aside to cool.
Add the lamb mince, breadcrumbs, egg and paprika into a bowl with the cooled red onion and season well with salt and pepper.
Mix until well combined, then drop the crumbled feta in and fold through carefully so the feta is spread throughout in small chunks, but not mashed up.
Shape in to 6 equally sized patties.
Heat skillet or BBQ grill to medium high heat.
Place patties on grill and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Continue cooking until cooked through (71°C).
While the patties are cooking, toast your buns under a grill until lightly golden brown, then set aside.
Once the patties are cooked it is time to layer up your burgers.
