How to Cook Crown Lamb Roast
INGREDIENTS
Crown roast:
2 racks lamb, 6 to 8 ribs each, approximately 1 1/2 to 2 pounds each, frenched by your butcher
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped rosemary
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Spinach and artichoke dressing:
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 small onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, diced
1 plum tomato, diced
1 (12-ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
4 cups baby spinach
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups Israeli couscous, cooked according to package instructions
4 ounces feta, cubed
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Prep the lamb: Make a slit between every two ribs about 1/2 inch deep on the bone side of the ribs. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine rosemary, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. Rub the lamb with the mixture.
Bend the racks into a semicircle and tie together with butcher’s twine. Tie once at the base and again in the center. Tie each rib end to each other. It should look like a crown. Place the crown into a Bundt pan with the center of the pan coming out through the center of the crown. Roast for 30 minutes until it reaches 135 degrees for medium rare. Transfer to a platter to rest
To make the dressing: Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the tomato and artichoke hearts and saute until the tomato starts to break down, another minute. Stir in the spinach and saute until just wilted down. Add the wine and stir to cook down the spinach. Season with salt and pepper. Fold in the cooked Israeli couscous and feta. Drizzle generously with extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Keep in saute pan to stay warm.
To serve: Place lamb on a platter and spoon the dressing inside the crown. Garnish with chopped parsley and charred lemon halves.

2 cups grain mustard
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

French the rack of lamb by cutting the fat side of ribs perpendicular about 2 inches down from rib end. Then cut between each rib down to the perpendicular cut. Scraping away the fat and exposing the rib bones.
Cut between each rib at the bottom so it is easier to bend and so the marinade can penetrate the lamb. Place the lamb racks in a bag and pour the marinade all over the lamb. Close and place in refrigerator overnight. This will help with the gamey flavor.
The day of make the spicy cilantro sauce and cook basmati rice first and keep warm to place in the center of crown roast.

Add 5 1/4 cups of water, 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Once done place the 1/3 cup chopped dried apricots and 1/3 cup raisins on top of rice, do not mix, cover and let sit. Keep warm until time to place in center of crown roast.
Preheat oven to 425F and adjust rack to the middle of oven.
Remove the lamb from marinade, lightly rinse each rack of lamb under cold water to remove excess mustard seeds, and pat dry.
Pour olive oil over each rack and spread 6 cloves minced garlic on each rack.
Mix 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 4 teaspoons of fresh thyme chopped, 1 teaspoon of fresh rosemary chopped, mix, and rub all over crown roast.
Tie the racks together to form crown. Place crown roast in oven in an oven safe pan and cook for 30 minutes for medium. Remove from oven when desired doneness and cover with foil and let meat rest for 15 minutes.
