How to Make Aussie Lamb Burgers With Goat Cheese And Tomato Relish
- **Prepare the Lamb Patties:** In a large bowl, gently combine 500g ground lamb, 1 finely chopped shallot, 1 tbsp capers, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- **Form the Patties:** Divide the lamb mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties about 1 inch thick.
- **Cornmeal Coating:** Place 1/2 cup cornmeal on a plate. Press each patty into the cornmeal to coat both sides.
- **Preheat & Prep BBQ:** Preheat your barbecue to medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil.
- **Cook the Lamb Burgers:** Place the patties on the hot grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- **Make the Tomato Relish:** While the burgers cook, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add 2 cups chopped tomatoes and 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion.
- **Simmer the Relish:** Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper to taste.
- **Cool & Toast:** Remove the relish from the heat and let it cool slightly. Lightly toast the burger buns, cut-side down, on the grill.
- **Assemble the Burgers:** Spread a generous amount of goat cheese (approximately 2 tablespoons per burger) on each toasted bun. Top with a lamb patty and a spoonful of the tomato relish.
- **Serve & Enjoy:** Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Aussie Lamb Burgers!
