Around the World in 12 Dishes – Greece

Welcome to Around the World in 12 Dishes. We are coming to the end of our 12 month journey now, but I will be continuing next year and hopefully won’t miss any countries out this time.

For Greece we made lamb and feta burgers.

Burgers

• 500g lamb mince
• 1 large onion finely chopped
• 100g crumbled feta cheese
• 2 tsp harissa paste
• Salt and pepper
• 50g plain flour on a plate for coating the burgers

Instructions

• Mix all of the ingredients (apart from the flour) in a mixing bowl until well combined.
• Form 6 large patties (or more smaller ones) of equal size and coat in the flour.
• In a frying pan heat some oil and add the burgers, turn occasionally to avoid burning the surface

Tzatziki 

• Half a large cucumber, deseeded and grated (squeezed through a muslin or kitchen roll to dry out the pieces)
• 1 small tub of natural yoghurt
• 1 clove of garlic very finely chopped and crushed
• Pinch of salt
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 tsp paprika

Combine all the ingredients and sprinkle the paprika on top.
