Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
- Slice the baguette into 12 even slices.
- If using fresh rosemary, finely chop it.
- Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add the ground lamb.
- Cook the lamb for about 5 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until it begins to brown.
- Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan with the lamb.
- Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the onion starts to soften and become translucent.
- Stir in the tomato puree and honey, mixing well to combine.
- Add the rosemary, a dash of salt, and a dash of black pepper to the mixture.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to thicken slightly.
- While the lamb mixture is simmering, lightly toast the baguette slices in a toaster or under a broiler until they are golden brown.
- Spread a generous amount of softened goat cheese on each baguette slice.
- Spoon the honey-rosemary lamb mixture evenly over 6 of the baguette slices.
- Top each lamb-covered slice with a handful of fresh spinach.
- Place the remaining baguette slices on top to form 6 sandwiches.
- Serve the sandwiches warm, optionally cutting each in half for easier handling.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, try toasting the baguette slices before assembling the sandwich.
- You can substitute ground lamb with ground beef or turkey if preferred.
- Enhance the flavor by marinating the lamb with rosemary and garlic for at least an hour before cooking.
- Use fresh rosemary if available for a more vibrant taste.
- Consider adding caramelized onions for an extra layer of sweetness.
- If goat cheese isn't to your taste, feta or ricotta can be great alternatives.
- For a spicier kick, add a dash of red pepper flakes to the lamb mixture.
