How to Make Apricot Mint Lamb Burgers W Green Mayonnaise

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground lamb, 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, 1/4 cup chopped dried apricots, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  2. Gently form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. Grill or pan-fry over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to medium-well.

  4. With the food processor running on low speed, slowly add 1/4 cup olive oil until emulsified.
  5. Stir in 1 tablespoon of water if needed to reach desired consistency.
  6. Refrigerate the green mayonnaise until ready to use.
  7. Once the burgers are cooked, place them on toasted buns.
  8. Top each burger with a generous dollop of green mayonnaise, sliced apricots, and cucumber slices (optional).
