1lebanese cucumbersliced lengthways with a vegetable peeler
1teaspoonolive oil
250gcooked lamb
2tablespoonhoisin sauce
2tablespoonboiling water
2flatbreads
Extra hoisin sauceto serve
Instructions
Prepare the spring onions and cucumber.
Shred the lamb into small pieces, leaving some pieces larger than others - the smaller pieces will become crispy whilst slightly larger will remain juicy.
In a non stick pan over a medium heat fry the lamb in the olive oil for 5 minutes, stirring just occasionally to make sure all sides are golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix the hoisin sauce with the boiling water.
When the lamb is golden all over, pour this sauce over the lamb, stir, and turn off the heat. It will spit a little so take care. Stir again to coat all the lamb, then spoon into a serving bowl and serve straight away.
To serve, place half the lamb mixture on a flatbread, then top with a small handful of spring onion and a small handful of cucumber ribbons, drizzle over a little more hoisin sauce, if you want, then roll up and eat.
Notes
This recipe serves 2 people, but you can easily double or triple it.Leftover lamb - I often use roast leg of lamb, but leftover roast shoulder would also work well in these wraps.Spring onion - also called scallion or green onion, depending on where you live.Cucumber - I often use Lebenese cucumbers, but you can use half an English cucumber in you prefer.Wraps - any soft flatbread is good! Depending on the brand of wraps you use, they may need warming through under the grill for a minute or two. You can also use crispy iceberg lettuce leaves for a low carb option.
