Steps

  1. Wash and dry the lamb racks. Prepare both racks by lightly scoring the skin between the ribs with a knife to make them easier to bend. Place the racks opposite each other so that the rib bones are facing outward. Sew the sides together with a trussing needle and kitchen twine. Wrap the twine around the crown to maintain its shape.

  2. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Peel the garlic, crush it with a knife, and finely chop it. Rub the racks with the chopped garlic and place them in a baking dish. Drizzle with oil and season with salt, pepper, and rosemary. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes.

  3. While the meat is baking, prepare the couscous with vegetables from the stuffing ingredients.

  4. Transfer the baked lamb crown to a serving platter. Remove the twine and stuff the crown with couscous. Wash and dry the parsley, rosemary, and fig. Finely chop some parsley and sprinkle it over the couscous, tucking a sprig or two into the edge of the couscous for decoration. Place rosemary around the crown. Halve the fig and arrange it on the plate.
