Roast Spring Lamb

This is a very elegant yet easy recipe for roasted lamb that would be wonderful for a spring Sunday dinner. We like our roast lamb on the rare end of “medium rare”, but feel free to adjust the recipe if you prefer your lamb a little more cooked. I’ve read different sources stating that for medium rare the internal temperature should range anywhere from 120° to 145°F. I took our lamb out at 130°F. and it was just about a perfect rare to medium rare. The photo looks more medium I realize, but those were the end pieces, or first cuts. As the roast rests, the internal temperature will continue to rise a few points as the meat continues to cook. An accurate meat thermometer is an essential tool for roasting meat perfectly.
