Ground lamb is most often available in the spring. I overdid it a bit with the Parmesan Cheese Sauce in this photo, but boy, is this dish tasty! I'm not a big fan of roast lamb, but making a broiled burger of ground lamb is very different because the grease naturally drips off. Serve with fresh roasted asparagus and new potatoes to welcome spring.

| Ingredients for Burgers 1 pound ground lamb 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped 1/2 teaspoon coarse of kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1/2 teaspoon paprika Directions for Burgers If grilling, preheat grill. 1. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well. (Mixing it by hand seems to work best.) 2. Form mixture into four patties, 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. 3. Grill or broil using medium heat., 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Tastes best if you cook until you see a little bit of pink in the center. | Ingredients for Parmesan Cheese Sauce 1 tablespoon onion, finely chopped 2 teaspoons flour 4 tablespoons Parmesan Herb Cheese Mix 1 cup plain yogurt 1 tablespoon butter 1/2 cup milk 1 large egg Directions for Cheese Sauce 1.

In fact, experiment with the many ways you can use this sauce . |
