Here’s another way of giving leftover lamb new life. I’d always thought that this sumptuous Middle Eastern dish that envelops lamb in eggplant was quite a production, but done this way it takes less than half an hour to put together and is worth every minute of effort.
Cooks' Note
If you can’t find a small eggplant, use a medium one and, after broiling, put away at least half the slices for tomorrow’s lunch. I find eggplant delicious in a pita along with slices of fresh tomato.
