Okay, here it is.

Dorothy B’s Leftover Lamb Slices in Madeira

This is an excellent way to cook leftover lamb. I won a contest
with it when I was in my late teens or early twenties.

1 Tbsp butter
1/4 tsp dry rosemary, crumbled
salt and pepper to taste
slices of cold roast lamb
1 Tbsp currant jelly
1/2 c Madeira
1/2 tsp butter
1/2 tsp flour

Melt 1 Tbsp butter in a large skillet, and stir in the rosemary,
salt, and pepper. Add the lamb and cook, turning, until heated.
Add the jelly and wine. Simmer for 5 minutes. If a thicker sauce
is preferred, make a flour-butter paste, and stir into sauce until
thickened, having removed the lamb.
This can also be made with grape jelly instead of currant, or
sherry instead of Madeira, but I have never tried that.
