Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ground lamb
  • 1 onion minced
  • 2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 tbsp grape seed oil or any good quality cooking oil.
  • Sea salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4-6 portobello mushroom caps halved
  • Scant 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 4-6 Earth Island Mozzarella cheese slices or dairy free cheese slices of choice
  • 4-6 Boston lettuce leaves
  • 1/2-1 tsp Earth Island Veganaise or vegan mayonnaise of choice {per burger}
  • 4-6 thin buns toasted

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together lamb, onion, and nutmeg. Make into desired size patties and place on parchment paper on a baking sheet and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, add oil, place cut mushrooms and cook on medium high heat until they start to wilt, approximately 1 minute.
  • Then, add soy sauce and stir well to incorporate with mushrooms. About 30 seconds or so.
  • Turn stove off and set mushrooms aside.
  • Next, using the skillet once more*, heat oil and place prepared patties, sprinkle salt on top of them. And once you've turned them over, repeat with the salt for the other side. Cook them for 2 minutes per side.
  • Remove once finished cooking.
  • Assemble burger and enjoy!

Notes

Depending on the size you choose to make, this recipe will yield 6-5oz or 4-8oz patties {for the adventurous}.
*If you're planning on using the same skillet you'd used for the mushrooms for the burger patties, make sure to wipe the pan first before adding your oil and cooking the burgers so you don't transfer the taste.
