SPICED LAMB BURGER WITH TZATZIKI



Spiced Lamb Burger With Tzatziki image

This recipe is another very easy and super quick meal to make that tastes great and is budget friendly.It is on the table in about 30 Min's. I served these on bagels last night but serve with what ever bread you fancy I usually serve mine on Turkish bread but I couldn't get any yesterday. I list 250g of tzatziki as this is the weight of the store bought brand that I buy. Sometimes I do have leftovers, but it does keep in the fridge and you can use the leftovers to dip vegetables in for a nice healthy light lunch the next day. Note: Sumac: A purple-red astringent spice ground from berries growing in the Mediterranean; adds a tart, lemony flavour to food.
