Dakos Burger

The Dakos Burger is a flavorful fusion of traditional Greek ingredients, featuring a juicy meat patty served on a crispy Dakos base. This Paleo-friendly dish combines the freshness of Mediterranean flavors with the satisfying crunch of dried barley rusks.

Ingredients

• Ground lamb - 250 grams
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Oregano - 1 teaspoon, dried
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and form into two patties.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the lamb patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 70°C.
3. While the patties are cooking, prepare the topping by mixing diced tomato, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, parsley, and lemon juice in a separate bowl.
4. Once the patties are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
5. To serve, place each lamb patty on a piece of Dakos, then generously top with the prepared vegetable mixture.
