This is very good, but I think the amount of rice is incorrect. I made it as instructed and let it simmer for 25 minutes and it was soup! Luckily I had cooked rice in the fridge from another meal that I was able to add to the dish to make it less soup like. Next time I will try 1 cup of rice.

Herb Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce
Instead of cooking ham or prime rib for Easter, why not try something new this year? Our Herb-Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce may look and sound fancy, but it's really easy to do. It's basically a rack of lamb that's coated with herbs and spices before it's roasted to perfection. Just before serving, it's finished off with a mint-wine reduction. The end result is an Easter-worthy main dish that'll impress everyone at the table.
