The instruction how to make Roast lamb racks with mixed herb labne
- For the labne, place a fine sieve over a bowl. Line the sieve with a double layer of muslin. Place the yoghurt in the centre of the muslin. Bring the edges together to enclose and twist to secure. Place in the fridge for 8 hours or overnight to drain.
- Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan forced. Spray the lamb racks with olive oil. Sprinkle with the sumac and salt. Season with pepper. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the lamb, turning, for 5 minutes or until browned. Transfer to a roasting pan. Roast for 12-14 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest for 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, remove the labne from the muslin and transfer to a clean bowl. Stir in the lemon rind, mint, parsley and chives. Season with pepper.
- Carve each rack into 3 portions. Arrange on a serving platter and sprinkle with mint, parsley, chives and pepper. Serve with labne and lemon wedges.
