  20                    pearl onions -- peeled
  1         tablespoon  olive oil
  1         tablespoon  brown sugar
  1              pound  ground lamb
  2        tablespoons  all-purpose flour
  1                     egg -- beaten
     1/2      teaspoon  freshly-ground nutmeg
                        salt -- to taste
                        freshly-ground black pepper -- to taste
                        focaccia bread -- cut 4" to 5" rounds
  1                cup  crumbled feta cheese
  1         tablespoon  olive oil
                        fresh mint leaves
 

Preparation:

Cook onions in simmering, salted water for 5 minutes, then drain. Heat olive oil in a small saute pan, add onions and sugar, toss to coat. Cook, tossing occasionally, until onions are tender and golden brown. In a large bowl mix the ground lamb with the flour, beaten egg, ground nutmeg and salt and pepper. Separate the mixture into 4 equal patties. On a hot grill or barbecue grill patties for approximately 5 minutes on each side (for a medium-rare burger) or until desired degree of doneness. After cutting the focaccia into rounds, slice each round in half. Lay the grilled lamburgers on top of focaccia. Crumble the feta over patties. Top with caramelized onions (cut in half), a drizzle of olive oil and fresh mint leaves. Replace remaining rounds of focaccia.
