Step 1
Combine ground lamb, bulgur, minced onion, mint, lemon juice, allspice, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Step 2
Mix gently with your hands or a fork until the bulgur absorbs the lemon juice and the mixture holds together, ~2 minutes.
Step 3
Taste and adjust lemon, salt, and allspice until bright and savory.
Step 4
Chill in the fridge for at least 5 minutes before serving—the longer, the better flavor development.
Step 5
Serve on a plate, drizzle with olive oil, and scatter pomegranate seeds or pine nuts if you have them.
