2. In a large roasting pan, toss the peppers, onion, halloumi and crushed red pepper with 2 1/2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
3. Season with salt and pepper.
4. In a medium bowl, knead the lamb with the cumin, cinnamon, cloves, 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper and form into four 4-inch patties.
