GYRO BURGERS



Gyro Burgers image

This is not your ordinary hamburger! If you like hamburgers and you love Gyro sandwiches, then you may enjoy this combination of those two ideas. Adapted from "365 Ways to Cook Hamburger." I borrowed this cookbook from a local library and copied out this tasty recipe. Purists beware - this is not pretending to be an authentic recipe from any particular culture, but is merely influenced by the flavors & style of Greek cuisine. Prep is about 15 minutes plus 2 hours chilling time. Cook time is a guess and varies based on how thik you make each patty - also, even though the original suggested 4 huge patties, you can certainly make smaller ones and just cook them for a little less time. You can broil these if you prefer.

Time 2h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

3/4 lb lean ground lamb
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 cup fresh breadcrumb
1/2 cup minced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
4 plum tomatoes, chopped
1 small onion, slivered
1 small cucumber, seeded & chopped
1/2 head romaine lettuce, shredded
1 cup tzatziki (homemade or purchased)
4 pita pockets

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine lamb, beef, bread crumbs, minced onion, garlic, allspice, coriander, cumin.
  • Add just 1 tsp of the salt and 1/8 tsp of the pepper and mix well.
  • Form into 4 patties, cover and chill 2 hours.
  • In another bowl, whisk together vinegar, oregano, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp pepper.
  • Gradually whisk in the oil until blended well.
  • Add tomatoes, sliced onions, and cucumbers and stir to coat.
  • Cover and let marinate at least 2 hours (no more than 8 hours).
  • When you are ready to cook your burgers, oil& preheat your grill and grill as you would any hamburger (10-15 minutes or so- or until no pink remains but burger is still moist).
  • When burgers are fully cooked, slit pita pockets open on the sides to form open pockets (you can warm the pita up by setting on the side of grill briefly) and place a burger inside.
  • Have bowls of the tomato topping, the shredded lettuce, and some tzatziki(a Middle Eastern style yogurt sauce) on the table for guests to add as desired.
  • The yogurt sauce is available in the dairy case near dips or at the deli counter or some markets or you can prepare a homemade version.

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
2 teaspoons ground coriander
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for the skillets
1 large red onion, peeled and sliced into 4 thick slices
8 ounces Greek yogurt
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup minced cucumber
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 small soft pitas, toasted if desired
Chopped tomato, for serving
Chopped romaine lettuce, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals evenly over the bottom. Heat 2 flat cast-iron skillets over direct heat.
  • For the burgers and onions: Combine the lamb, coriander and mint in a large bowl. Form the meat mixture into 4 equal thin half-moon shaped patties. Season the patties with salt and pepper on both sides. Add a splash of oil to the cast-irons. Cook the patties 3 to 5 minutes, allowing the meat to get a nice crust. Flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the burgers from the heat and let rest 2 to 3 minutes before assembling the burgers.
  • Meanwhile, drizzle the onions with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until softened and charred, about 5 minutes.
  • For the tzatziki: Add the yogurt, garlic, lemon zest, cucumber, dill and mint to a large bowl and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve: Spread some tzatziki over each pita, add a patty to one half of each pita, top with some grilled onion and add some chopped tomato and lettuce. Fold the other half of each pita over. Serve!
