Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup olive oil
Pinch kosher salt
2 Frenched racks of lamb
2 tablespoons kosher salt
Olive oil, for grilling
Apple-Mint Compote, recipe follows, for serving
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 Granny Smith apple, diced into 1/4-inch cubes
1/4 cup firmly packed fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the herb mixture: Put the whole peppercorns in a spice grinder and grind until coarse. Transfer to a small bowl and add the mint, rosemary, sage, thyme, oregano and garlic. Add the olive oil to the mixture and season with a pinch of salt.

ROAST RACK OF LAMB WITH MINT SAUCE



Roast Rack of Lamb with Mint Sauce image

The lamb that we buy today hardly requires a typical English mint sauce (the puckery flavor was originally designed to cut through the stronger taste of mutton), but the combination is by now a traditional and still-welcome one. Buttered carrots and a watercress salad would complement the lamb nicely. Uncork a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon or red Bordeaux.
