Roast Lamb Sandwich
Serves 2

Here’s a suggestion for what to do with the leftover fabulous lamb roast you cooked last night. Mix up some creamy, tangy, slightly smokey aioli. Chop up a few briny Spanish green olives and some piquant Piquillo peppers; add a small amount of finely chopped red onion (optional). Slice two six-inch pieces of crusty baguette lengthwise and smear both slices with a generous amount of the aioli, lay down a few thin slices of cold roast lamb, top with the olive relish and a few grinds of black pepper, close it up with the top piece of baguette. Not your average lamb sandwich! I hope you enjoy it!
