Still want the ease of the grill, but tired of the same “American” flavors? Since the summer began I’ve been thinking of making a Mediterranean burger. But I never got around to it, because, frankly, it’s just so much easier to buy the premade sliders so why do the extra work of forming patties? Then I had this idea. It’s the best of both worlds: new flavor without the extra work. I find the tahini in the squeeze bottles much easier to use.
shawarma spice mix
8 to 12 sliders
8 to 12 fresh mini pitas
thinly sliced English cucumber, for serving
3 tablespoons Gefen Light Mayonnaise
2 tablespoons tahini paste, such as Mighty Sesame Tahini
juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons water
1 clove garlic, crushed or 1 cube Gefen Frozen Garlic
1 cube Gefen Frozen Dill
1/2 teaspoon salt
pinch of Pereg Cumin
Add shawarma seasoning onto a plate. Very gently press each slider into the seasoning mix to coat.
Grease and preheat a grill or grill pan. Add slider and cook about three to four minutes per side.
Meanwhile, whisk together tahini-dill sauce ingredients.
Slice open mini pitas. Add slider, cucumbers, and drizzle with sauce.
