Find out how to make a lamb guard of honour with the help of the Good Housekeeping Cookery team.

A guard of honour is another way of preparing and roasting lamb, using two interlinked trimmed lamb racks.

1. Make sure racks are trimmed well and bones are scraped clean. Score fat on top of lamb racks in a diagonal criss-cross pattern, to create a diamond effect. This helps fat render out when cooking so there isn’t a chewy layer left underneath skin. Take care not to score down to flesh.

2. Stand racks fat-side out with bones pointing upwards. Push racks together so that bones on each rack interlock with bones on other.

3. Cook on a baking sheet at 220°C (200°C fan) mark 7 for 30-35min for medium meat.

4. To serve, carve between individual bones.
