The most luscious hamburgers are made with the freshest ground beef, lamb, poultry, fish, or even vegetables that offer a truly gratifying indulgence. Although the same basic principles apply to all burgers, different cultures make different hamburger traditions, and whether they happen to be Turkey's cheeseburgers, Sweden's Kyottbullar, or Berlin's meat burgers, the only way to know exactly how good each of them taste is to try the hamburger recipes.
Bori-Bori Burgers
A South American specialty, this recipe for hamburger combines lamb and corn.
Ingredients
� pound lean ground lamb
Salt and pepper to taste

� cup white bread crumbs

Directions
Put the ground lamb into a bowl, followed by corn and parsley then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Combine.

In a heavy-based, non-stick skillet heat the oil over medium heat until it sizzles. Add the burgers and pan fry for about 10 minutes or until brown enough, turning once at half-time.
