Ingredients

Pickled Apples and Red Onions

  • 16-ounce Mason jar

  • 2 Granny Smith apples, sliced thin

  • 1 red onion, sliced thin

  • 1 large pinch of salt

Garlic Walnut Aioli

  • pinch of salt

  • water, to thin

Lamb Burgers

  • 1 pint baby bella mushrooms

  • 1 and 1/2 pounds ground lamb

  • 4 sage leaves

  • 4 mint leaves

  • salt

Directions

Prepare the Pickled Apples and Red Onions

1.

In a 16 ounce Mason jar, add your apple and onion slices. Fill until just covered with water. Add the rest of ingredients. Let it sit in the fridge for a few hours or up to two days.

Prepare the Garlic Walnut Aioli

1.

In a food processor, blend the mayo, garlic, walnuts, and salt until smooth. Thin out with water until it reaches your desired consistency.

Prepare the Lamb Burgers

1.

In a food processor, grind the mushrooms until very fine. Sauté in olive oil with salt and pepper. It will end up looking like browned ground meat. Set aside in a bowl to cool.

2.

In the same food processor, blend the sage leaves, mint leaves, and garlic until it resembles a paste. Mix this paste into your ground lamb along with salt and pepper. Add the cooled mushrooms to the mixture.

3.

Form round patties from the mixture and cook for a few minutes a side on an oiled hot cast iron pan or grill.

Assemble the Burgers

1.

Shmear a toasted challah bun or bun of your choice with garlic walnut aioli. Top with a lamb burger and pickled apples and onions. If you desire an added crunch, add some kale, as well.
