Greek burger, beef meatball, tsazaki sauce, tomato and lettuce, bacon, shredded kalamata olive |

Preparation time: 30 min

Preheat your four at 400 °F

• General preparation

  Cut the tomatoes into slices and prepare the lettuce leaves.

  Chop the shallot and mint, chop the garlic and parsley, crumble the feta.

• Burger preparation

  In a skillet, cook the bacon until it's nice and crispy.  Set aside on paper towel to remove excess fat.

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced meat, garlic, parsley and eggs.  Season with salt and pepper.  Make 8 little patties.  Place the bacon and cheese in the center of 4 of the patties and then cover them with the other 4.  Make sure to seal the burgers properly to avoid leakage.

  In a non stick skillet, add a thread of vegetable oil and then sear the burgers on both sides.  Place the seared burgers on a baking sheet and finish the cooking process in the oven for about 8 minutes.

  Warm the buns in the oven for a few minutes before serving.

• Sauce

  Trim the cucumber and salt a little to clear it. Cut it into brunoise (small cubes).

  Mix all the ingredients for the sauce and set aside.

• To serve

  Toast each bun, brush the base with the Tsazaki sauce, place a beef patty, the bacon, a slice of tomato and onion and the salad leaf, add more sauce. Close the burger with its hat, prick with a skewer.
