Steps:
- For the lamb: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Season the lamb with salt and pepper. Sear the lamb racks, fleshiest side down first. Let sit and brown about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and sear the other side. Repeat with the other rack. Transfer lamb racks to a sheet pan.
- Combine the thyme and rosemary and press an even amount into each seared lamb rack. Let sit for a few minutes.
- Roast the lamb in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Heat the apricot jam in a small saucepan over low heat. When the jam is melted, turn off the heat. Brush a light coating of jam on each piece of lamb.
- For the sauce: Heat a deep saute pan over medium heat and add the oil, lamb trimmings, and rosemary. Cook until the fat is a little cooked down and the trimmings are deep golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Deglaze the pan with the chicken stock. Reduce by two-thirds.
- Stir in the demi glace and pomegranate juice concentrate. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Strain the sauce and set aside. Just before ready to serve, re-warm the sauce and whisk in the butter. Taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper, if needed.
- For the potato cakes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Grate the potatoes and blend with the flour, egg, salt, and pepper.
- Drizzle the oil into the small cast iron pans and fill halfway with the grated potatoes. Top the potatoes with salt, pepper, and goat cheese. Top with the remaining potatoes.
- Bake the potato cakes in the oven until golden brown and cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Turn the pans over to unmold the potato cakes.
- For the julienned vegetables: Heat a saute pan over medium heat and add some oil. Saute the julienned vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are just softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste a bite and cook for another minute if the vegetables are still hard.
- To plate: Slice off 2 chops from each rack and then cut the meat from the rest of the rack into slices. Serve each guest 1 lamb chop on the bone and 3 slices of boneless meat. Serve with a potato cake and sauteed vegetables.

Steps:
- Whisk the pomegranate juice and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Add the sugar, honey and mustard and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer until thickened to the consistency of barbecue sauce, 6 to 8 minutes. Season to taste. Let cool for 30 minutes. The glaze can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- Place the lamb chops in a large zipper-top bag. Pour half of the glaze into the bag and let the lamb marinate at room temperature for 1 hour. Reserve the remaining glaze to coat the lamb chops on the grill.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and liberally oil the grates.
- Take the chops out of the bag and place them on a paper towel-lined tray or plate to wipe off any excess marinade to ensure a nice crust. Season the chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the chops on the grill until charred in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, baste liberally with the glaze and grill for another 3 or 4 minutes or until the internal temperature hits 135 degrees F on a meat thermometer.
- Baste the chops with the glaze again, then remove them from the grill. Coat one side in the chopped pistachios for an added crunch. Serve with a nice schmear of the feta tzatziki and garnish with some fresh mint.
- Grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater and place in a fine-mesh strainer or piece of cheesecloth fitted over a bowl. Salt the cucumber and let sit for 10 minutes. Then squeeze out any excess moisture. Put the strained cucumber into a bowl. Add the yogurt, feta, lemon juice, mint, honey and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Generously season lamb chops with salt and black pepper.
- Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Place lamb chops in Dutch oven and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer lamb to a plate and reduce heat to medium.
- Stir onion and a pinch of salt into the Dutch oven; cook until onions are slightly golden, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Pour pomegranate juice into the Dutch oven and scrape any browned bits off of the bottom of the pot. Pour in balsamic vinegar, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil.
- Stir rosemary, mint leaves, and red pepper flakes into pomegranate juice mixture. Continue to boil until liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Return lamb and any accumulated juices to Dutch oven, spoon pomegranate mixture over lamb, and cover.
- Cook in the preheated oven until meat is fork tender, about 2 hours. Transfer lamb to a plate and set Dutch oven on the stovetop over high heat. Bring pomegranate mixture to a boil; cook, skimming any fat that accumulates, until liquid is reduced by 1/3, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in honey and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Return lamb to the Dutch oven; stir to combine. Garnish with pomegranate seeds, sliced mint leaves, and pumpkin seeds.

Steps:
- Put the garlic, cinnamon, cumin, oregano and lemon in a blender with 1 tsp salt and 2 tsp black pepper. Blend until smooth. Put the lamb in a large roasting tin and tip the marinade over the top. Massage all over the lamb and leave for 24 hrs in the fridge, or up to 2 days.
- Remove lamb from the fridge 1 hr before cooking. Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/ gas 3. Scatter the onions around the lamb, tucking some underneath, then pour over the pomegranate juice. Cover the lamb with foil and cook for 4 hrs.
- Remove the foil, carefully pour the meaty pomegranate juices from the tin into a large saucepan and add the honey. Increase oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7, re-cover the lamb and continue cooking for 30 mins. Meanwhile, bubble the cooking liquid over a high heat until reduced, thick and syrupy - this may take up to 30 mins.
- Pour the sticky pomegranate glaze over the lamb and onions and return to the oven for another 30 mins, uncovered, until the glaze is bubbling and just starting to char, and the lamb is really tender. Mix the yogurt, most of the pomegranate seeds and mint leaves in a small bowl. Shred the lamb at the table and serve with the sticky onions and the minty pomegranate yogurt. Scatter over the remaining pomegranate seeds.
