Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C/fan200°C/gas 7. In a bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, lemon zest, cheese and herbs to make the crust. Smear the fat-covered side of the lamb racks with the tomato purée and press the crust on top to cover evenly. Put the lamb on a lightly oiled baking tray and roast for 20 minutes for pink lamb, or 25-30 minutes for medium to well done.
Remove from the oven and cover with foil for 5 minutes before carving.
