Leftovers are a great source of nourishment for your desk-side dinners; however, you sometimes get bored with eating the same thing over and over again. With a little bit of effort, make these lamb, chickpea and apricot pitas, and leftover lamb can be transformed into a wonderful lunchtime treat that bears almost no resemblance the roast dinner it was the day before.
Ingredients
- Leftover lamb (from 1 lamb shank or equivalent), cooked
- 100g chickpeas
- 50g dried apricots, chopped
- Mixed salad leaves
- 3 pita pockets
Dressing
- 120g Greek yoghurt
- ½ clove garlic, minced
- ½ tsp dried mint
- ½ tsp ground coriander
- ½ tsp chilli flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper

Method

- To make the dressing mix together all the ingredients and set aside.
- To assemble, cut one side off the pitas.
- Stuff with the mixed salad leaves.
- Top with lamb mixture and add a dollop of the yoghurt dressing.
- Serve warm with any extra dressing on the side.
