Leftover minted lamb broth recipe

Leftover minted lamb broth

A light, fresh meat and veg soup that needs nothing more than a hunk or two of crusty bread to make a meal. This recipe is a mouthwatering leftovers idea from our soy honeyed leg of lamb dish. The leftover meat needs to be thoroughly reheated until piping hot and should never be re-heated more than once.

Stir through the spring onions and mint and season well with black pepper before ladling into bowls to serve with crusty bread.
