Though a rack of lamb might look a little tricky to tackle, with the right timing it can be made very simply. It’s best served medium rare and blushing in the centre. I highly encourage you to serve it with the punchy salsa verde here- the sharp zingy salsa cuts through the sweetness and fattiness of the lamb and alongside beets and roast potatoes – this makes for a real treat for 2-4 people.
