Method

Lamb Patties
1

Grate the onion, carrot and zucchini. Place all vegetables in a clean tea towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

2

Place all the ingredients except olive oil into a large mixing bowl and mix until well combined. Using clean hands (rings removed) is the best way to really mix it thoroughly.

3

Divide the mixture into 16 small patties.

4

Make a small thumb print indent in the middle of each patty, put on a baking paper-lined tray and if you have the time refrigerate for at least a half hour or until ready to cook.

5

Cook on a BBQ or place in a frying pan with oil. Cook for 3-4 mins on one side (until the bottom is nicely browned).

6

Flip and cook for a further 2- 3 mins until cooked through. If using bacon fry this at the same time.

To Assemble
1

Assemble sliders by placing tomato relish on bottom, followed by meat patty, bacon, cheese, tomato and lettuce. Secure sliders with a slider-pick. Serve immediately.

2

Optional – warm through burger buns or sliders in oven or on the bbq.
