LET’S BEGIN
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).
PICKLE PARTY
In a bowl, combine the vinegar, 15ml of water, and 5ml of a sweetener. Mix until the sweetener is fully dissolved. Add the cucumber ribbons, the mustard seeds, ½ the chopped dill, and the onion slices. Toss until fully coated and set aside.
LAMB-SOLUTELY DELISH!
In a bowl, combine the mince with some seasoning. Wet your hands slightly to stop the mixture from sticking, and shape into a patty of about 2cm thick. In a bowl, combine the diced tomato, the sliced olives, seasoning, and a drizzle of oil. Set aside.
FRY THE PATTY
When the potato wedges have 10 minutes remaining, place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the patty and fry until golden and cooked to your preference, 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
BUN-BELIEVABLE!
Return the pan to medium-high heat. Butter the cut-side of the halved bun or drizzle with oil. When hot, toast the bun, cut-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes. Drain the pickling liquid from the cucumber.
LET’S FEAST LIKE THE GREEKS!
Smear some tzatziki over the bottom bun half. Top with the patty, some of the diced tomato & olive salsa, and the pickled cucumber & onion. Crumble over some of the drained feta and close up with the other bun half. Side with the roasted potato wedges and the remaining tomato & olive salsa, pickled veg, and feta. Dollop over any remaining tzatziki. Sprinkle over the remaining chopped dill and get munching!
