When people say “Aussie Burger”, two burgers comes to my mind, one is a classic beef burger, but with grilled pineapples & pickled beets, or a burger with a lamb patty, plus egg & bacon. In this case, we are making a good old lamb burger, since grilled pineapple and beets really shouldn’t go on a proper burger.
You’ll need:
- 3/4 lbs ground lamb (80% lean)
- 1/4 sweet onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 2 slice goat cheese (or any soft cheese)
- 4 slice bacon
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp mayo
- 1/2 tbsp relish
- some lettuce
- 2 kaiser rolls, split (or hamburger buns)
How to make this:
- The ground lamb should be about 80% lean, finely mince the onion and garlic, then mix the meat, onion, garlic, salt and ground black pepper. Form them into 2 patties and place them in the fridge and let is set for 20 min
- Place the bacon in the oven and roast at 175C or 350F degrees for 20 min or until it turns crisp. Save the bacon grease, then fried 2 egg in a pan over medium heat
- In the same pan, turn the heat up to medium-high, pan sear the patty for about 6-7 min each side. You can also cook the patty on a medium heated grill for about 5 min each side
- Mix the ketchup, mayo & relish into a sauce, slice and toast the kaiser rolls, spread on the sauce, place the lettuce, patty, bacon & egg
