Curried Lamb Patties With Radish Raita
D&M Farms in Breese, IL just brought us some lamb — chops, ground and shanks, as well as lamb gyro burgers, both plain (spiced) and with spinach & feta cheese. Limited quantities because we wanted to make sure they’re delicious before over-committing. The verdict is, gyro burgers: thumbs up! If you want to sub in some already spiced meat in this recipe, you can say you’re doing it in the name of science, not just because you’re lazy busy.
