For food safety, cook a whole lamb roast to at least 145°F and rest for at least 3 minutes.  The existing recipe below describes a rarer finish.

Ingredients

  • 1 frenched Finnsheep rack of lamb (about 1½ lbs)
  • 1 tbsp ghee
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp coarse black pepper

Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 400°F.  Rub the rack with ghee, salt, and pepper — nothing else.  Good lamb doesn't need hiding.

  2. 2

    Set it bones-down in a small roasting pan and roast 22–28 minutes, until the center reads 125–130°F for rosy pink.

  3. 3

    Rest 10 minutes, then slice between the bones into chops.  Two to three chops per person.
