Grilled Lamb and Feta Burgers

For the Burgers: 1 ½ pounds ground lamb 2 cloves garlic, finely minced ½ pound feta cheese, crumbled ½ teaspoon ground allspice ⅓ cup fresh parsley leaves, coarsely chopped Kosher salt Freshly cracked black pepper 4-6 buns

For the Tzatziki Sauce: 1 cup Greek whole milk yogurt 1 seedless cucumber, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced ½ teaspoon lemon zest 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill Kosher salt Freshly cracked black pepper

To make the Tzatziki Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Chill. In a medium bowl, combine the lamb, garlic, feta, allspice, parsley, salt and pepper, making sure not to overwork the mixture. Form the lamb mixture into 4 to 6 patties. Heat a grill pan over moderately-high heat and cook the lamb burgers until a nice crust forms, about 4 minutes. Turn the burgers over and let cook another 4 minutes. Let the burgers rest 10 minutes. Serve topped with Easy Tzatziki on a roll or bun.

NOTES: Allspice is one of those secret weapons in savory foods. You can't put your finger on it, but you know it is there. It was named by the English, because they thought it contained cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Add some chopped fresh mint to this as well.
