Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put the lamb in a mixing bowl and add all of the ingredients except the vegetable oil and harissa sauce. Blend the mixture thoroughly by hand.

  2. Step 2

    Shape the mixture into 8 equal-size patties similar to hamburgers.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold all of the patties. Two pans may be necessary.

  4. Step 4

    Add the patties to the skillet. Cook them over medium-high heat about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, depending on the degree of doneness desired. Drain on paper towels and serve with the harissa sauce on the side.

Am I missing something? Where's the recipe for Harissa sauce?

I followed the recipe except that I grilled instead of pan frying. Oh and I added a little sour cream for moisture since I was not frying in oil. I could have added a little oil or even yogurt. I used Molly O'Neill's recipe for Harissa Sauce rather than Pierre's. You find the recipes for Harissa by searching for Harissa Sauce on the NYT's site .

No hot pepper flakes

This was delish on a cold February evening. Next time I'll prepare the harissa, which I skipped this time. Five stars!
