Monday, 2 April 2007 9:03 A GMT+01
I love lamb - I always feel it has a more pronounced flavour than beef or pork.  I always try to buy British lamb - whether it's from the Essex salt marshes, the Welsh mountains or the rugged north of England, it always seems to have a sligh

Rack of lamb with a light herb crust

Monday, 17 July 2006 9:22 A GMT+01
Rack of lamb is one of those cuts that makes me think of old fashioned haute cuisine - of ocean liners or the Savoy Grill. Usually, a rack is 'French cut' - that is to say the ribs are pared down at the ends leaving bare bone leading to succule
