Method
Crust mix
1
Remove the leaves of the tarragon stems and chop roughly.
2
In a medium-sized bowl, mix butter with tarragon, lemon zest, cumin, garlic, spring onions, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.
3
Spread the crust mix on the lamb racks and place back in the refrigerator for half an hour for the butter to set before roasting.
Vegetables
1
Cut turnips into wedges and carrots in half and then again in half lengthways. Cut spring onions into 2-3-cm pieces.
2
Melt butter in a frying pan and add vegetables and tarragon. Mix well and let it roast for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper and place in a roasting pan.
Lamb rack

175C/155C fan/gas mark 4. Place lamb racks on top of the vegetables and roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
