I treated myself to a lamb roastie last night
Now, I have a quarter of a leg of lamb to deal with.(Or half of the half leg I cooked IYSWIM)
I'll make sarnies and I often chop up the cold meat and use it in a risotto

I'd quite like some other things to try... any ideas?

I don't know how well it would work, but i really like having lamb chops served with spaghetti in any pasta sauce or just treat yourself to another full roast!

The joint is already cooked.... can't roast it again, it never tastes the same.

Leftover roast lamb - curry it with spinach. Or make fajitas?

Yes make lamb curry with spinach, while my mouth waters at the thought of it. I used to get the nicest lamb with spinach from a Bengali cafe/takeway in Mile End , the lamb was so meltingly tender, tasted lovely looked like brown sludge though!

Another vote for curry.

An alternative would be to make a jeweled cous cous with lots of herbs and spices and stir the gently heated lamb though it.

Stovies! A Scottish dish made with left over meat and potatoes. Loads of recipes on the net. Here's one: http://www.stovies.com/
Serve with oatcakes. Lovely! More a winter dish but with the weather we've been having recently...

Marinate in a mint sauce and have it in pittas with salad, red onion and yoghurt.

Give it to the dog - he / she'll beat you up with love!

Aside from that, cold roast meat with salad & chips is understated & lovely.

You can slice it and gently reheat the slices in gravy in a shallow pan. Then serve it with roast potatoes and all the trimmings. It's a Jamie Oliver tip.

I do that.
And I bet Jamie Oliver got it from his Granny, the same as I got it from mine!

Looks similar to my fave for leftover roasts - Hash.
