Method

  1. Put the racks in a dish flesh-side up and make slashes into the flesh with a sharp knife to allow the flavours to penetrate. Mix together 2 tbsp olive oil, the mustard, garlic, rosemary and parsley. Season well and rub the mixture onto the flesh to coat the lamb evenly. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 1 hour or, ideally, all day.
  2. Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Put the lamb in a roasting tin and cook for 15-25 minutes depending on the size of the rack. Remove from the oven, cover with foil and rest for 10 minutes before carving into cutlets and serving on warmed plates.

    Simple and extremely tasty. As an aside, I found my lamb to be completely uncooked at the 15 minute mark, but 25 minutes gave us beautiful pink meat.

    Well received by my guests. The timings are way out, however. I had fairly big cutlets and they took 45 minutes, and were still very pink on the inside.
