1

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
2

Make the patties: In a large bowl, gently mix the ground lamb, ground beef, mint, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper until just combined. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape into large patties. Set aside.
3

Make the sauce: In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, garlic, and salt; cover and refrigerate.
4

Grill the burger patties on the preheated grill until they reach your preferred doneness, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
5

While the burgers cook, prepare to assemble: Place slices of onion and green tomato on the grill and cook until lightly charred, about 1 minute per side.
6

Spread the yogurt sauce on the sliced ciabatta rolls. To assemble, place a burger patty on each roll, divide the feta cheese slices over the patties, and top each with a slice of grilled tomato, grilled onion, and 2 leaves of arugula, then add the top half of the roll.
