Rack of Lamb

£34.00

Wiltshire Horn lamb from Bob King at Lower Bayton Farm. A rack of cutlets that's quick to roast, easy to carve into chops and best served pink. Festive, elegant and on the table in half an hour.

How to cook

  • Lightly score the fat and season generously.

  • Put it fat-side down in a pan over a moderate heat and render the fat slowly until it's golden and crisp. This is where most people go wrong: lamb fat should be melting or crispy, never chewy.

  • Sear the other sides, then turn the heat down, add butter and keep spooning the foaming butter over the meat and the bones.

  • Roast at 160°C until the centre reaches 50°C, then rest for at least 10 to 15 minutes. It will rise to about 56°C, a perfect pink medium-rare.

  • Slice between the bones.
