Yum! These are easy, and really, really tasty. I made into mini burgers instead of full size, as I like to take mini burgers to work for lunch. I would never have thought to grate the feta, but it really distributes the flavor nicely through the meat mixture. I substituted oregano for the mint, as I really don't care for mint, and it nicely complemented the other flavors. All alone, the flavor in this burger is outstanding, with a pita and tzatziki, it will be over the moon. If you like lamb, definitely try this recipe! Thanks for posting a real winner.
