FOR THE MERGUEZ SAUSAGE

1 pound ground lamb

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

4 teaspoons mild chili powder

1½ teaspoons sea salt

1 teaspoon ground fennel seed

¾ teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

½ teaspoon hot Hungarian paprika

FOR THE SANDWICH

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

1 garlic clove, mashed

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 red onion, thinly sliced

1 seedless cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced into rounds

¼ cup Aïoli here

4 hamburger buns, toasted

1 . To make the merguez sausage , in a large bowl, combine the lamb, olive oil, garlic, chili powder, salt, fennel seed, cumin, pepper, and paprika until well mixed. Cover, refrigerate, and let the flavors develop overnight if possible. Then, either hand roll into 4 long sausage shapes or form into 4 hamburger-style patties.

2 . Preheat the grill or broiler.

3 . To make the sandwich , in a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the onion and cucumber and toss to mix well.

4 . Grill or broil the sausage to your desired degree of doneness, turning once, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate.

5 . Spread 1 tablespoon of aïoli over the toasted sides of each bun. Place a sausage on the bottom half of each bun, arrange the cucumber salad over each, top with the other half of the bun, and serve.

TIP: There are many times where I do not feel like making merguez at home and will look to specialty butchers and grocery stores to find premade sausages. If you cannot find merguez where you live, by all means substitute any spicy sausage—I promise it will still taste incredibly delicious.
