- Preheat the barbecue for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Mix the lamb mince, beef mince, mint, ginger, 1 teaspoon garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper in a large bowl until just combined. Divide evenly into four portions and shape in to large patties. Set aside. Mix Greek yoghurt, lemon zest, 1 clove garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl; cover and refrigerate.
- Cook the lamb and beef patties on the preheated grate until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, 3 to 4 minutes per side for well done. Place the slices of onion and green tomato on the grill. Cook until lightly charred, about 1 minute on each side.
- Spread yoghurt sauce over the sliced ciabatta rolls. Assemble each burger by placing the patty on the the roll and dividing the feta cheese slices over the patties. Top with a slice of tomato, onion, and 2 leaves of rocket, followed by the top half of the roll.

These lamb burgers are the perfect combination of easy-with-wow factor and great for a group. It's worth the time to make the simple yogurt sauce to go with it, but I've used store-bought Tzatziki in a pinch too. Also, I love these with caramelized sweet onions and regular tomatoes on top, but what a great way to use all those green tomatoes! Fantastic recipe, as is! - 10 Sep 2010 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This recipe has been a favorite of our Make-Ahead Mamas cooking group for over three years. We make it every summer during our Summer Grilling Cooking Party and it's a great gourmet alternative to a traditional hamburgers for your next BBQ. To save time the day of your BBQ, make these ahead of time! Simply freeze the uncooked patties in a single layer on parchment paper on a cookie sheet, then stack the frozen patties in a freezer container or Ziploc Freezer bag. Thaw the day before your party, or cook the patties directly from the freezer (just add a few more minutes to the cooking time!). Delicious! - 11 Jul 2011 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
