Method
-
step 1
Heat a little olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry the left-over lamb for 3-4 minutes or until crisp and warmed through. If using lamb leg steaks, cook over a high heat for 2-3 minutes on each side then rest on a plate, covered with foil, for 10 minutes. Slice.
-
step 2
Mix the yogurt with the red wine vinegar, garlic and plenty of seasoning, then spoon over a large platter.
-
step 3
For the dressing, whisk together all of the ingredients. Toss the lamb with the watercress and herbs, and a little of the dressing, in a bowl then tip onto the platter and drizzle over more of the dressing. Serve with crusty bread, if you like.
