Instructions
Burgers:
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and divide equally into four portions. Shape each portion into a burger patty.
On a preheated BBQ, grill the burgers over medium flame until cooked through or alternatively in a preheated pan over medium heat. Approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side but an instant-read thermometer is the way to go: 71 degrees C or 160 degrees F.
Serve with Tzatziki, and lettuce, and optional tomato on your favourite burger buns.
Makes 4 burgers
Greek Tzatziki:
Put grated cucumbers in a clean towel or cheesecloth and squeeze to remove moisture. (Do not peel the cucumbers, as the skin contributes colour and nutrients.)
Place drained cucumbers in a bowl, and add all the other ingredients; stir to combine.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of two hours for the flavours to marry.
