Instructions

Yogurt Sauce Directions

  • Cut off head of garlic and remove the layers on the outside of the garlic until one or two layers are left.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and then wrap garlic in foil and place on a baking sheet.
  • Place garlic in preheated oven at 400 for 30-40 minutes.
  • Once your kitchen fills with a strong scent of garlic, check to see if the centers of your cloves of garlic are nice and soft. If no, return to oven and continue to roast.
  • Once garlic is nice and soft, remove from oven and allow to cool.
  • Once garlic is cool, place yogurt in a bowl and add garlic, mint, lemon juice and salt, mix thoroughly until ingredients are completely combined and nicely blended.
  • Place in fridge while you create your sliders.

Lamb Sliders Directions

  • Place lamb, herbs, salt and pepper, and red onions in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Divide mixture into equal portions (approx. 12) and form the portions into small meat patties just a little wider than your slider buns.
  • Place olive oil into your pan and heat.
  • Once the oil is hot place the patties into the pan - you may have to cook the patties in two batches.
  • Cook patties for 3-5 minutes either side dependent upon desired temperature.
  • And allow to rest for 2 mins.
  • While patties are resting, heat slider buns either in your grill pan or under the broiler. Just a little do not crisp your slider buns.
  • Place one patty onto the bottom of one half of a slider bun, top with a dollop of yogurt sauce and then place top of slider bun on top.
  • Serve with fries.
