MedSliders

Mayonnaise
 0.50 cup mayonnaise or plain, whole milk Greek yogurt
 2 tbsp olive tapenade (or finely chopped olives)
Burgers
 1.50 ground lamb
 3 tbsp coarsely chopped fresh oregano (or 1 tablespoon dried)
 2 tsp grated fresh garlic
 2 tsp ground coriander
 1.50 tsp ground cumin
 1.50 tsp kosher salt
 0.50 tsp freshly ground black pepper
 1 large egg, lightly beaten
 Vegetable oil, enough to lightly coat the grill or grill pan
Assemble
 4 Toufayan Mini Pitettes®, split open (or 8 unsplit Mini Pitettes®)
 0.50 red onion, sliced into 4 rings
 1 cup baby arugula
 0.50 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 2 ounces)
 1 cucmber, half-peeled and thinly sliced (or 2 Persian cucumbers thinly slided)
1

Place the mayonnaise and tapenade or olives in a medium bowl and mix to incorporate.

3

Place all of the ingredients except the oil in a large bowl and, using your clean hands, mix until just combined. Split the meat into 4 equal portions and shape each piece into a patty that is 1/2-inch-thick and roughly 1/2-inch wider than the Mini Pitettes®.

5

Using your thumb, make a 1-inch-wide indentation in the center of each patty in order to help the burgers cook more evenly.

7

Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium high (about 450°F to 550°F). When the grill is ready, use tongs to rub the grate with several layers of paper towels soaked in vegetable oil.

9

Place the patties on the grill indentation-side up, close the grill, and cook, making sure you do not press down on the patties, until grill marks appear on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip each patty and cook with grill closed until the patties are firm to the touch, about 3 more minutes. Remove to a clean plate and let rest in a warm place for a few minutes.

ASSEMBLE
10

Spread about 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise on each top and bottom Mini Pitette® (you may have some mayo leftover).

11

Divide red onions and cucumber slices amongst Mini Pitette® bottoms, top with a patty, then garnish each with arugula and feta.

12

Place the top Mini Pitette® and serve immediately.
