  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C / 160°C fan / Gas 4-5. Take the two lean racks of lamb and calculate the cooking time: medium - 25 minutes per 450g/0.5kg plus 25 minutes; well done - 30 minutes per 450g/0.5kg plus 30 minutes.
  2. Mix together the rosemary, lemon rind and juice, garlic, olive oil and seasoning, and rub into the racks.
  3. Cook on a preheated barbecue with a lid or place onto a rack in a roasting tray and oven roast for the calculated cooking time.
  4. Serve the lamb with new potatoes and a green salad.
