Mince is one of those go to foods and can be done up in so many ways. I made these with minced beef but minced lamb would have gone well with the feta and maybe a little mint added.
Basically, I mix the mince with seasoning and finely chopped onion. Some people like to add egg and breadcrumbs but I tend not to. Form the meat into burger shapes. If you want to try the mix for seasoning, fry off a little and taste it, adding more seasoning if you want.
Chop the feta into large cubes about 1" and form the burger around the cheese, in much the same way as you would for a scotch egg. Now cook your burger in your chosen way: barbecue, grill, oven or fry pan.
For the sauce, I fried off a little chopped onion with a clove of garlic, when softened, I added a tin of chopped tomatoes, a tsp sugar, a little tomato puree and a good splash of Worcestershire sauce. Simmer until thickened and serve with the burgers.
Alternatively, brown the burgers off, put in a cooking dish and pour the sauce over. Cook in the oven for about 15 mins until cooked through.
