• In a small bowl, combine all the glaze ingredients; mix well.
• Spoon the glaze evenly over the lamb; pour 2 cups water into the pan.
• Roast the lamb for 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the lamb reads 135° for medium-rare (check periodically to make sure there is some liquid in the bottom of the pan and add more water if necessary).
• If you prefer lamb more well don, cook to 140° to 150° for medium.
• Remove the lamb and place on a carving board; let rest for at least 10 minutes.
• Place the roasting pan on top of the stove and add a bit more water; cook over medium heat, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Taste and adjust the seasonings; degrease the pan juices and pour into a gravy boat.
• Care the lamb into thin slices and serve with the juices.

Steps:

• Rinse the lamb under running water, blot dry.
• With the tip of a sharp knife, make several pockets at random intervals in the meat.
• Put a sliver of garlic in each, roll the meat into a roll and tie with cooking twine.
• Mix the mustard, rosemary and black pepper together.
• Rub over the outside of the rolled meat, wrap meat in foil and place in refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees, place the roast on meat rack in shallow roasting pan and insert meat thermometer into thickest part of roast.
• Add approximately 1 cup of warm water to bottom of roasting pan, the roast should rest on rack above the water.
• Place roast in preheated oven and cook for 15 minutes.
• Lower the temperature to 325 degrees and continue roasting for 20 minutes per pound for medium or until meat thermometer registers 145 degrees. If you like your lamb well done, you will need to adjust the cooking time to suit your taste.
• Remove the roast from the oven and cover with foil allowing to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
• While meat is resting, warm about 1/2 cup of mint jelly.
• Slice into 10 equal portions and serve with warmed jelly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven so the lamb will sit in the middle of the oven.
• Peel 6 of the cloves of garlic and place them in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and butter. Process until the garlic and rosemary are finely minced. Thoroughly coat the top and sides of the lamb with the rosemary mixture. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Toss the potatoes and remaining unpeeled garlic in a bowl with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place in the bottom of a large roasting pan. Place the lamb on top of the potatoes. Roast for 20 minutes. Turn the heat down to 350 degrees F and roast for another 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until a meat thermometer registers 130 to 135 degrees F for medium-rare. Place the lamb on a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice and serve with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Stir together bread crumbs, parsley, mint, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a bowl, then drizzle with 2 1/2 tablespoons oil and toss until combined well.
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat to 400°F.
• Season lamb with salt and pepper. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in a large heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown lamb 1 rack at a time, turning once, about 4 minutes per rack. Transfer to a 13- by 9- by 2-inch roasting pan, arranging fatty sides up.
• Spread fatty sides of each rack with 2 teaspoons mustard. Divide bread crumb mixture into 3 portions and pat each portion over mustard coating on each rack, gently pressing to adhere.
• Roast lamb until thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into center (do not touch bone) registers 130°F (for medium-rare), 20 to 25 minutes, and transfer to a cutting board. Let stand 10 minutes, then cut into chops.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine mustard and garlic. In a wide shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, rosemary, and dried herbs; whisk to combine. Pat lamb chops dry with a paper towel and season with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. With a basting brush, lightly coat lamb chops with mustard mixture, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture.
• In a large nonstick saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add half the lamb chops to pan and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining chops and oil. Let lamb chops rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• 2-3 hours before roasting, prepare the lamb. Use a small, sharp knife to make 15 to 20 incisions, each about 2 inches (5 cm) deep, through the fat cap on top of the meat. Thinly slice 3 cloves of garlic and use your fingers to press the slices into the incisions.
• In a blender, combine the remaining 9 garlic cloves, the olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, rosemary leaves, thyme leaves, salt, and pepper. Blend until a paste forms.
• Spread the paste evenly all over the lamb. Let marinate at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Place the lamb on a roasting rack in a roasting pan and pour the wine into the bottom of the pan. Roast for 15 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and reduce the heat to 325°F (160°C).
• Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, in the roasting pan and place the lamb on the rack on top. Roast for 2 hours, tossing the potatoes and basting the lamb with the roasting liquid halfway through.
• Transfer the potatoes to a platter, baste the lamb again with the remaining pan juices, and return the lamb to the oven. Continue to roast, basting often, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the leg reaches 130°F (for medium-rare), 45 minutes to 2 hours more, depending on thickness. (As a general rule, the lamb should roast 20 minutes per pound for medium-rare).
• Transfer the lamb to a platter and set aside to rest for 20 minutes. While the lamb rests, return the potatoes to the roasting pan, season with flaky salt, and warm in the oven until just heated through, about 20 minutes. Return the potatoes to the serving platter.
• Carve the lamb into ½-inch (1 cm) thick slices and arrange on the platter with the potatoes, garnished with rosemary and thyme sprigs. Serve with whole grain mustard alongside.
• Enjoy!

Press bread crumb mixture into mustard and continue roasting until temperature registers 130 to 135 degrees for medium, 30 to 45 minutes. Transfer lamb to cutting board and tent loosely with foil. Let rest 15 to 20 minutes. Slice and serve.
