Lamb and red onion burgers

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

Ingredients

500 g lean lamb mince
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Rustic rolls, for serving
Olive oil, for brushing
Lettuce leaves, to garnish
A choice of relishes, coriander or basil pesto, or spicy tomato chutney, for serving
For the grilled onion:
250 g red onions, skinned and thinly sliced
Olive oil, for drizzling

Cooking Instructions

Very lightly mix the meat with the seasoning, taking care to handle the meat as little as possible. Lightly shape into 4 patties. Barbecue or grill for 3 minutes a side, or until browned but still rare inside (add another minute a side for medium and yet another minute for well done).
Alternatively, place in a moderately hot pan and cook, over a medium heat, for 2 minutes before turning and cooking on the other side. Turn again once or twice until nicely browned but rare, about 6 minutes in all.
Split the rolls then brush the cut side with olive oil and grill – cut side only – until golden. Sandwich with the burger patties and grilled onion and garnish with lettuce leaves. Add your choice of relish and serve.

To grill the onions: Mix the sliced onions with a little oil. Spread onto a grill pan and place under a heated grill for 5 minutes, or until tender.

Cook’s note: Forgo the bun and serve the burgers and grilled red onions on a big salad.
