Hamburguesas de cordero a la menta con mayonesa de hierbas

Ingredientes

• 500 g lamb mince
• 1 handful fresh mint leaves
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 4 tbsp mayonnaise (click the link for my homemade recipe)
• 1 small handful fresh mint leaves

   Finely chop the mint leaves (a handful) and put them into a large bowl.

   Divide the mixture into four and shape into burgers. Make a little dent in the centre of each one (as the meat naturally puffs up as it cooks, so this will ensure that you end up with a flat burger).
