Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Place pistachios, bread crumbs, salt and pepper into the food processor and process until really crumbly. Drizzle 1 table spoon of olive oil all over the bread and pistachio mixture and mix until well combined.
- Season lamb with salt and pepper.
- Warm a large skillet over high heat. When the skillet is hot , add olive oil enough to film the bottom of the pan (1 tbsp of oil, maybe a little bit more).
- Add lamb to the skillet, cooking for about 3 minutes on each side to brown.
- Transfer lamb to a medium size roasting pan, with the fatty side up like shown on this picture below. Spread mustard over the top portion of the rack (the fatty side). Then pat pistachio and bread crumb mixture over mustard coating on lamb. Press to make sure it adheres.
- Roast lamb for about 20-25 minutes, medium-rare. If using thermometer, it should register 130 F. Transfer to a cutting board or a plate.
- While you roast the lamb in the oven, prepare the roasted carrots and asparagus as described below.
- Once, the rack of lamb is cooked, cut the lamb into chops, 2 ribs each.
- Slice each carrot into 4 pieces, lengthwise, so that you have thin long pieces of carrots.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet on high heat. Add the carrots, they should sizzle. Stir to coat with oil. Add a pinch of salt. Add a little bit of parsley and oregano.
- Cook on high heat, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until carrots are nicely browned and get the "roasted" look - for 10-15 minutes. After that, remove from heat, cover with lid and let carrots stay covered for at least 10 minutes
- Bring medium size pan with water to boil. Add asparagus and cook for about 10 minutes until asparagus is somewhat soft but still crunchy.
- Drain asparagus, pat dry. Add to the skillet with carrots. Stir to coat with oil. Add salt if necessary.
- Serve each individual portion of rack of lamb with roasted carrots and asparagus at the base.

PISTACHIO CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB
The pistachio and mustard crust gives this lamb dish an interesting flavor and texture. Sure, rack of lamb is a little pricey, but no more so than other special occasion meats like prime rib, beef tenderloin, or goose. And, because rack of lamb is sold completely trimmed, you'll have virtually no waste.

PISTACHIO-CRUSTED MOROCCAN RACK OF LAMB WITH ISRAELI COUSCOUS
We were wondering what to do with our rack of lamb. Since we had some Ras el hanout, preserved lemon, pomegranate molasses, and pomegranate seeds, we prepared this with excellent results. I have never been to Morocco. But from what I have seen of recipes by Paula Wolfert, the preparation of Moroccan cuisine seems much more complicated than this. Your own Ras el hanout will be better than anything you find already prepared. And if you can find spices at an ethnic market, it will cost less, too. (Food.com has many very good Ras el hanout blends, including my own :-)) As for preserved lemon, guess where you can find a recipe? You guessed it--right here on Food.com. But I will also provide one at the end of this recipe

Steps:
- Rinse rack of lamb under cold water and pat dry. Using a sharp knife, cut a few slits between the bones and into the meat. (This will allow some of the spice blend to penetrate into the meat) Brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with Ras el hanout and paprika. Allow to stand at room temperature while preparing the couscous.
- Rinse cilantro, parsley, and mint leaves. (Amounts listed above in ingredients are approximate, since I use a handful of each) Dry in paper towels, then roughly chop. Also roughly chop preserved lemon and dried apricot. **For most recipes that call for preserved lemon, thoroughly rinse off the salt and remove the pulp and seeds, using only the rind.** If you do not have preserved lemon, zest a whole lemon to add later while combining couscous ingredients.
- Grind pistachio nuts and combine with bread crumbs. (If your pistachios are salted, there is no need to add salt to the lamb before searing it).
- To prepare the Israeli couscous, melt butter in saucepan and sauté chopped onion until soft. Add the couscous and cook with the sautéed onion, then add the stock. If you do not have stock, use water. Bring to boil, then reduce heat. Cover and continue simmering about 8 minutes, until couscous is soft. Not all of the liquid will be absorbed. Empty contents into a fine-mesh strainer and rinse with cold water, rinsing off the starch that was released during simmering. Return the rinsed and drained couscous back into the saucepan and reheat slightly.
- Prepare your lamb: Preheat oven to 375. If your pistachio nuts are unsalted, sprinkle rack of lamb with salt. Using an oven-proof skillet, heat olive oil over moderately high heat. When oil is hot, sear the lamb rack until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
- Remove pan from heat. Slather both sides of lamb rack with pomegranate molasses. Then with meaty side of lamb rack up, pack nut crumb mixture on top. Place skillet in oven and roast until internal temp reaches 140 degrees F for rare, about 15-20 minutes. Then allow to stand a few minutes before carving.
- Combine couscous, preserved lemon or zest, apricot, pomegranate seeds, and chopped mint, cilantro, and parsley. If desired toss couscous with a splash of olive oil and a small amount of lemon juice from the zested lemon.
- Carve rack into 8 chops. Spoon couscous onto plate and arrange chops on top.
- ************************************************************************************************.
- Preserved lemon: You will need a glass jar with an air-tight seal. Combine ~ a tablespoon of coriander seed with ~ a tablespoon of fennel seed. Place 1 bay leaf and 1 cinnamon stick in the bottom of glass jar. Have a small bowl of Kosher salt nearby. Slice lemons in quarters ALMOST down to stem end, but leave intact. Place coriander and fennel seed inside lemon and also fill with salt. Place cut side down into glass jar, squeezing as many into the jar as you can. As you squeeze them, some of the lemon juice is released, but not enough to fill the jar. Just continue packing in as many lemons as you can and add additional salt between layers of lemon. Top off with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Then refrigerate for a month. I think this is Jamie Oliver's technique, but there are many out there. He has also suggested doing this with other citrus, like limes and mandarin oranges. Meyer lemons work nicely. Some techniques suggest a layer of olive oil on top, and this works well, too.
HERB CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB WITH HARISSA SAUCE AND SAFFRON ISRAELI COUSCOUS WITH ZUCCHINI AND FENNEL
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the couscous: Set up a small pot of boiling water and season liberally with salt. Add the couscous and cook until al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Heat a large saute pan with some oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced fennel and onions and season with salt. Cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the zucchini and saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chickpeas, saffron, chicken stock and cooked couscous. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the chicken stock has reduced, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and toss in the chopped fennel fronds.
- For the lamb: Add the parsley, panko, pistachios, oil, rosemary and salt to taste to a bowl. Mix well to combine then set aside.
- Cut the rack of lamb in half so you have two pieces with four bones each. Sprinkle liberally with salt on all sides.
- Heat a large saute pan with some oil over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers. Sear the lamb, fat side down, until golden brown and a crust begins to form, about 5 minutes. Flip the lamb and sear on the underside as well as each side until golden brown, another few minutes each. Remove the lamb from the pan, place onto a sheet tray and discard the excess fat in the pan. Reserve the pan for the sauce. Place the rack of lamb into the oven and bake until the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer when inserted into the center of the meat, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and brush the top side of the racks evenly with the mustard. Press the pistachio herb crust onto the rack, ensuring the crust adheres to the mustard. Place the crusted rack of lamb back into the oven until the crust is golden and the lamb reaches 135 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest before slicing. Once rested, slice each lamb rack into double chops.
- To the same pan that the lamb was cooked in, add some oil, the fennel, onions, crushed red pepper and salt to taste. Saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, garlic and harissa and stir to combine. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer and cook until the sauce reduces by half and has slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
- Serve the sliced lamb alongside the couscous.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the lamb: Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and add to a bowl with the pistachios and panko. Mix thoroughly to combine and set aside.
- Heat a large cast-iron pan with some canola oil. Sprinkle the lamb liberally with salt and pepper on all sides. Sear the lamb, fat side down, until a crust forms and it begins to turn golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the lamb and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the lamb and place onto a sheet tray lined with a rack. Spread the mustard evenly over the top and sides of the rack of lamb. Pat the pistachio crust mixture onto the lamb, pressing down to ensure it's nicely adhered.
- Transfer the lamb to the oven and roast until the lamb reaches an internal temperature of 130 degrees F, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest 10 minutes before slicing into double chops. Season the lamb chops with a sprinkle of salt.
- Heat a small saucepan over medium-high heat with some canola oil. Add the thyme, bay leaf, shallot and black peppercorns and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot begins to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and red wine. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the wine has almost completely reduced, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the veal demi and bring back up to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, another 5 minutes or so. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer into a saute pan. Turn the heat to medium and bring to a simmer. Add the pomegranate molasses and continue to reduce the sauce until it's thickened, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the red wine vinegar and the remaining 1/2 tablespoon (1 1/2 teaspoons) butter.
- For the couscous: Heat a small saucepan over medium-high heat with the vegetable stock, dates, butter, cinnamon and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, then whisk in the couscous. Turn off the heat and cover. Allow to sit for 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork and season with more salt if necessary. Fold in the chervil, parsley and tarragon.
- For the carrots: To make the baharat spice, add the dried mint, cardamom, clove, coriander, cumin, nutmeg and pepper to a small bowl. Mix together to combine. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
- Spread the carrots onto a sheet tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with the homemade baharat spice mix. Transfer into the oven and roast until the carrots are lightly charred and tender, about 20 minutes.
- Serve the lamb and sauce alongside the roasted baby carrots and couscous.

Break the couscous up with a fork and leave to cool. Add the remaining olive oil and parsley, satsuma juice, allspice, mint and onion, stir well, then add the cooked carrots and season.
- Put the lamb on a warmed plate and leave it to rest for 5 minutes. Slice it in half to give 3-4 cutlets each, then cut in half again. Spoon the couscous on to two plates, scatter over the almonds and top with the lamb. Serve with a spoonful of Greek yogurt.
