Cooking Steps

Cook the Chips
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Chop the sweet potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel). Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary. When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Shape the Burgers
2

Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Put the garlic, breadcrumbs, chermoula spice mix and water for the breadcrumbs (see ingredients for amount) into a large, then mix to combine. Add the lamb mince, season with salt (see ingredients for amount) and pepper, then mix together with your hands. Roll the mince into even-sized balls, then shape into 1cm thick burgers (1 per person). IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

Ready, Steady, Bake
3

Pop the burgers onto a lightly oiled baking tray and bake on the middle shelf of your oven until cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: The burgers are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Tzatziki Time
4

Meanwhile, trim and halve the cucumber lengthways (see ingredients for amount). Scoop out the seeds and discard, then coarsely grate half of it. Place the grated cucumber in a sieve and press with the back of a spoon to remove as much water as possible then pop into a small bowl along with the yoghurt. Season with salt and pepper, then mix well.

Make the Salad
5

Chop the remaining cucumber into small pieces. Crumble the Greek style salad cheese. In another bowl, mix together the vinegar and olive oil for the dressing (see ingredients for amount), then season with salt and pepper. Chop the tomatoes into 2cm pieces and toss in the dressing. Just before serving, add the chopped cucumber and olives to the bowl with the tomatoes and mix together. Halve the burger buns and pop onto a baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Finish and Serve
6

When everything is ready, spread the tzatziki onto the base of each bun. Lay the burgers on top, then close with the bun lids. Serve the lamb burgers on your plates with the sweet potato chips and salad alongside. Scatter the Greek style salad cheese over the salad to finish. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The lamb burgers are well-seasoned and flavourful; some found the tzatziki and burger seasoning a little mild and worth adjusting to taste.
  • Ease of prep: Straightforward to put together, though be prepared to use several bowls during prep.
  • Suggestions: Flatten the burgers well before baking as they puff up in the oven, and allow a little resting time to help them hold together. Adding the salad cheese directly into the bun is a popular way to boost flavour.
  • Next-day meals: A satisfying meal that works well for the whole family, with portions described as generous and filling.
  • Sweet potato chips: An air fryer works well for the sweet potato chips if you prefer a crispier result; cooking times may need adjusting.
  • Tzatziki: Squeezing out as much water as possible from the grated cucumber helps prevent a watery tzatziki and keeps the bun from going soggy.
