Steps:
- Set 4 whole garlic cloves in a small skillet over medium-high heat; toast until spotty brown, about 5 minutes. Peel, mince and set aside.
- Break up lamb in a medium bowl. Sprinkle roasted garlic, feta, oregano, salt and pepper over meat; stir with a fork to combine. Divide into 4 portions. Toss meat back and forth between cupped hands to form a ball. Pat with fingertips to flatten to about 4 inches wide. Refrigerate.
- Mix cucumber, sour cream, mint, vinegar, 1 minced clove of garlic, and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Refrigerate sauce until ready to serve.
- Build a hot fire on one side of grill. Replace rack. When coals are covered with white ash, add burgers. Cover and cook, turning only once, until done, about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium to medium-well burgers.
- Grill pitas until spotty brown and warm, a minute or so per side. Split crosswise. Spread a couple of tablespoons of sauce over 4 pita halves. Top each with an onion slice, a tomato slice and a burger. Spread a portion of the remaining sauce over each burger. Top with remaining pita halves.

Steps:
- Put the lamb, crushed garlic, mint, chopped olives, tomato puree, salt and freshly ground pepper in a mixing bowl and mix well. Divide into four portions.
- In a separate bowl, mix the feta cheese with the thyme. It doesn't matter if it crumbles, just gently squeeze together.
- Take a quarter of the mixture into your hand and roll into a ball. Flatten out, put a quarter of the feta in the middle and then draw the meat up around it.
- Make sure the cheese is secure within the meat. Repeat with the other three burgers and chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- In the meantime, make the salad by mixing the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion and olives together in a bowl. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Whisk the olive oil, cider vinegar and honey together and pour over the salad.
- Heat a griddle pan until hot. Rub each slice of bread with the garlic clove and sprinkle with olive oil.
- Cook the bread on the griddle pan until brown on each sides. Keep warm.
- Now cook the burgers on a griddle pan. Turn once after five minutes, then cook for another 5 minutes on the other side.
- Spread the mayonnaise on the toasted bread. Top each slice with a freshly griddled lamb burger and a small handful of salad and serve at once.

Steps:
- Marinate the lamb first. Put the racks into a non-metallic dish and mix the thyme, oil, lemon zest, garlic and half the oregano in a bowl. Rub this all over the lamb, then leave to marinate for at least 30 mins or up to 24 hrs. It's important that you cook the lamb from room temperature rather than fridge cold, so if you're cooking within 1 hr or so, leave it out of the fridge.
- For the sauce, finely chop the parsley stalks. Heat a large ovenproof frying pan or wide casserole, then add 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the garlic and the stalks, then soften for 1 min. Add the tomatoes and remaining oregano, then simmer for 5 mins until saucy, popping the cherry tomatoes with your wooden spoon to release all the juices and seeds. Chop the parsley leaves roughly and add half to the pan. Heat oven to 230C/fan 210C/ gas 8. Make the crust by mixing the remaining parsley leaves, feta, zest, oregano and breadcrumbs in a bowl.
- When you're ready to cook the lamb, leave most of the tasty marinade on the meat, season it well with salt and freshly ground pepper, then press the crust onto one side of each piece. Sit the racks in the sauce, with the crust-side facing upwards. Strew the thyme sprigs from the marinade over the lamb and into the sauce, then drizzle everything with a little extra virgin olive oil. Roast the lamb in the sauce, uncovered, for 20 mins (for pink and juicy meat) until the crust is golden and the sauce thickened. Leave to rest for 10 mins, loosely covered, so that the crust doesn't go soggy, then carve the lamb between each bone to make cutlets. Serve the crusted cutlets with spoonfuls of the intense, roasted-down tomato sauce, and the Easy buttered onion pilaf and Lemony greens (recipes below). Garnish with thyme.

Steps:
- In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil on high. Add lamb trimmings and bones, and brown well for about 5 minutes, stirring. Remove from heat, and drain off all fat. Add onions, and brown lightly. Add chicken broth and 2 sprigs of the thyme. Bring to a boil, and simmer for an hour. Strain through a fine sieve -- there should be about 1/3 cup. Keep warm.
- Meanwhile place carrots in a saucepan, cover with water and simmer for 1/2 hour. Carrots should be soft throughout. Drain, place in a blender and make a fine puree. Pass puree through a fine sieve. There should be about 3 tablespoons of puree.
- Blend puree with lamb broth over low heat. Remove, and set aside.
- Trim most of the fat from lamb fillets, leaving just a translucent layer. Crisscross fat with a knife. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a small nonstick pan over medium heat, heat the tablespoon of olive oil. Place lamb skin side down in pan, and cook 3 minutes. Flip lamb, and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, or to taste. Remove and keep warm.
- Slice the lamb on the bias, and distribute evenly over four warm plates. Pour some of the reserved lamb sauce over the meat. Decorate with remaining fresh thyme.

TASTY BAKED LAMB WITH FETA CHEESE AND TOMATOES
This is my husband's special dish he makes us for a treat. The flavours are lovely and he impressed me with it before we were married - I couldn't believe he'd cooked it! (I've since learned he is a good cook but keeps it quiet) He normally serves with some fresh steamed broccoli. As its so easy to make he passed the recipe onto a friend who wanted to impress his girlfriend but he didn't serve with any veggies and it does need something with it that's not baked - although she was impressed with the dish she told me. You can play around with the quantities to suit you as long as the basic ingredents are there. Enjoy!
