Lamb Burgers with Mint

1 pound of lean ground lamb
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 3/4 ounces of pine nuts
2 tablespoons of chopped fresh mint
salt and pepper

To serve
4 pitas or soft baps
2 3/4 ounces of feta cheese
salad greens




Place the ground lamb, chopped onion, pine nuts, fresh mint, and salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl and mix together until thoroughly combined.
Using your hands, divide the mixture into 4 pieces and shape the portions into round burgers, pressing the mixture together well. Let chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Grill the burgers over hot coals for 4 - 5 minutes on each side, turning once, until the juices run clear.
Warm the pitas or baps at the side of the barbecue grill or toast them.
Crumble the feta cheese into small pieces and set aside until required.
Split the pitas or baps and line with salad greens. Sandwich the burgers between the pitas or baps, and top with the crumbled feta cheese. Serves 4
