Milk Street Facebook Community member Jennifer Wozniak of Flint, Michigan, drizzles tahini onto lamb burgers that she spices up with sumac, cumin and red pepper flakes. She then serves the burgers topped with feta cheese and sandwiched in brioche buns. We played up the Middle Eastern flavor profile by spiking the tahini with Greek yogurt, lemon juice and more sumac, then spread the mixture like mayonnaise on each bun half. If you like, top the burgers with lettuce, tomato and thinly sliced onion.
Don’t buy crumbled feta cheese. Look for it sold in a block so it can be sliced into slabs for layering onto the burgers. Also, be sure to chill the patties before cooking. This firms them up so they’re easier to handle.
