These lamb racks make a perfect main course if you have to cook for special guests, with whom you would like to enjoy aperitif time without being stuck in the kitchen. In my case, it was my in-laws' first visit for dinner. Lamb racks are a flavourful crowd-pleaser, especially with this Provence-inspired garniture. I served the lamb with home-made potato gnocchi, zucchini baked in cream and basil and wine from Languedoc-Roussillon. It was easy to prepare all of it before-hand and just put everything in the oven while eating the starter. For people living in Switzerland, I highly recommend buying the meat from Manor Food, the price is worth the quality. Enjoy!
