Lamb Patties With Tzatziki Sauce
I like lamb, and lamb and tzaziki sauce is always an excellent combination. If you have had a gyros sandwich, the white sauce that they put on the sandwich is tzaziki sauce, and it goes really well with the gyros meat, tomatoes and onions.
So I set out to make something similar, except that instead of gyros meat I am making my own lamb patties. Serve the patties with the sauce and vegetables in a pita, and here is a fabulous main dish for you!
This is a great main dish to serve for a Greek or Mediterranean themed dinner. You can also make Greek salad to go with it.

How To Make Lamb Patties With Tzatziki Sauce
Chop the onions and parsley.
In a mixing bowl combine lamb, onions, parsley, egg, cumin, salt, pepper. Mix well.
Make the patties. Heat up the oil in the skillet. Fry the patties without crowding them - when you don’t crowd them you get a good crust on them. Fry them for 4-6 minutes on one side. Then turn them over and fry until done.
Chop cucumbers, onions and tomatoes.
Build the pitas - on each pita put a few patties, add the tzatziki sauce and add chopped onions, cucumbers and tomatoes.
