Pomegranate-Garlic Lamb

This is delicious and pretty easy and impressive for a dinner party. We had our very good friends, Stephen and Kara, over last night to test out the new china. It was all very grown up. Thank you to all of our great friends for getting us all of those amazing candlesticks, plates, platters, vases etc - they will all be well used!

I've been making lamb a lot lately, using pomegranate molasses. It's a great ingredient. It's tart and sweet. I got two racks or lamb from Trader Joe's (they actually have really nice, Frenched racks of lamb) and marinated them in a mixture of pomegranate molasses, lots of garlic, some fresh ginger, and some dried herbs. The lamb was juicy and so flavorful.

I served it with some sauteed asparagus and Israeli couscous.

Just came across these amazing specimens for Topshop: http://www.mykromag.com/blog/?p=1159. I'm not sure if they've hit stores yet, but I will be heading down to Soho ASAP to see for myself!

In other news, I'm prepping for China and packed mostly everything I'll need last night. I'm a little sad that I'm going to be away for so long (China Nov 20-29 and South Africa Dec 1-9), but I'm sure once I get there I'll be happy. I just hate knowing that everyone will be doing fab things without me... sigh.
