RULES
There are a few straightforward rules
you should follow to use leftovers safely;
• Cool then store leftovers in the
fridge as quickly as possible. Cover
them well and eat within 2 days.
• If freezing, cool thoroughly
first. Once frozen they will keep
indefinitely, but the quality will
deteriorate so try to eat them
within 3 months.
• Defrost leftovers completely.
Ideally in the fridge overnight, or
defrost in the microwave if you
want to cook straightaway.
• Eat leftovers within 24 hours of
defrosting and do not refreeze.
• Ensure leftovers are cooked until
completely hot throughout.

Buying only what you
need while it’s fresh and in
season is not only a great
way to experience the very
best quality produce, it
can also maximise your
shopping budget.
There is so much more to Scotch Beef and Scotch Lamb than
a one-off roast dinner. Maybe it is just the delicious taste
of the meat itself, or the cooking method, but one thing is
certain, leftover roasts can taste even better second
time around.
To make the most of every last piece, leftovers can be used
for dinners, lunches, light meals or snacks. Excellent in
curries, salads and sandwiches, pasta and rice dishes, soups
and stocks. Here are twelve great recipe ideas to use any
leftovers you may have from your roast giving you at least
two different meal occasions.
Whenever you see the Scotch Beef and Scotch Lamb labels
and PGI* logo, this guarantees the meat you are buying
has been born, reared and slaughtered in Scotland. This
ensures it has been produced to higher standards of animal
husbandry and welfare in Scotland’s natural environment.
Make sure it’s Scotch Beef and Scotch Lamb you’re buying
by looking for the labels.
