Ingredients

500 g lamb mince

1 tbs zaatar

1 clove garlic

½ bunch mint

½ tub yoghurt

1 zucchini

5 Bake-At-Home Buns

½ bag baby spinach leaves

2 tomatoes

Directions

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. To prepare the ingredients, peel and crush the garlic. Finely chop the mint. Cut the zucchini into ribbons and slice the tomato. Lastly, was the baby spinach.

Combine the lamb mince, za’atar, garlic, and half of the mint. Mix together using your hands. Season with salt and pepper and then shape the mixture into small burger patties (2 per adult).

Combine the yoghurt, remaining mint, and a good grind of salt and pepper. Set aside.

Heat a lightly greased BBQ or chargrill pan over a medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until chargrilled and tender. Transfer to a plate. Add the lamb patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the patties are cooked through.

Meanwhile, place the bake-at-home buns on a lined oven tray and cook in the oven for 5-7 minutes or until heated through. Halve.

To serve, layer the buns with the baby spinach, tomato, lamb patties, zucchini, and a dollop of the minted yoghurt. Serve any remaining baby spinach on the side.
