Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C/430°F/gas 7. Melt the butter in a small pan, and mix it with the parsley, thyme, breadcrumbs and mustard. Season well.
Stand the rack of lamb in a roasting tin and press the breadcrumb mixture onto the fatty side. Roast until the lamb is tender, between 30 to 40 mins, depending on how well-cooked you like your meat.
Heat the gravy, according to pack instructions, and serve the lamb with redcurrant and mint relish and other seasonal green vegetables and potatoes.
