Crown Roast of Lamb

== Description ==
Purchased from the Black Estate in Dallas, Texas in 1990. My mother has made this on several occasions and says it is delicious. Dated and source unknown.
== Ingredients ==
* 1 crown roast of Lamb
* 3 garlic cloves, peeled and slivered
* ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
* 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
* 1-tablespoon fresh rosemary
* 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
* 12 new potatoes, peeled
* 1-tablespoon salt
* 1 bunch parsley
== Directions ==
# Preheat oven to 450.
# Make small incisions in the meaty part of the Lamb every few inches and insert slivers of garlic.
# Paint the meat well with olive oil or rub with softened butter.
# Sprinkle all over with rosemary and pepper.
# Crumple a ball of aluminum foil and stuff in the center.
# Place on a small rack and surround with the potatoes in a low roasting pan just large enough to hold it.
# Place in the oven and immediately turn the heat down to 400.
# Roast until done, about 30 minutes.
# Remove the foil ball and immediately salt the meat.
# Remove to a warmed platter, and let rest 5-to-10 minutes before serving.
