This recipe comes courtesy of Welsh Lamb. Try these Welsh lamb racks rubbed with garlic, thyme and lemon and served with thyme-roasted carrots.
For the lamb:
Lean rack of Welsh lamb
4 cloves garlic, squashed
1 lemon, rind cut from the lemon and juice
5 sprigs fresh thyme
Black pepper
30ml olive oil
For the carrots:
12 small carrots, peeled or scrubbed and left whole
12g butter
Black pepper
2 sprigs fresh thyme
Pre-heat the oven to Gas Mark 4-5/180 degrees C/350 Fahrenheit. Take 2 lean racks of lamb or a leg joint, and calculate the cooking time as above (see cooking time). Mix together the garlic, lemon rind and juice, thyme, black pepper and olive oil and rub the mix into the fat side of the racks. Place the lamb onto a rack in a roasting tray and open roast for the calculated cooking time. Place the carrots onto a large piece of foil, and add the butter, black pepper and thyme. Wrap the carrots in a loose parcel and place on a baking tray next to the lamb for 40 minutes until tender. Serve the lamb with steamed carrots and extra seasonal vegetables of your choice.
