Notes

Lamb cutlets, chump chops or forequarter chops would also be perfect in this recipe.
Slice meat from any leftover lamb chops, discard bone and gently warm lamb. Toss with any leftover vegetables and salad leaves for a delicious lunch the next day.
Sweet potato, pumpkin, broccolini or zucchini would also be great in this recipe; pre-made Tzatziki can be swapped with hummus.
