Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Warm reserved mustard sauce; serve with lamb.

Steps:

• To make the claqueret, mix all the ingredients together. The flavours need time to meld, so ideally you should do this a couple of hours ahead and keep it at room temperature until ready to serve.

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Lay the lamb out flat, flesh-side up, and use a small knife to make incisions all over both the flesh and fat sides (they can be deeper on the flesh side). Crush the garlic with some sea salt using a pestle and mortar, then add the lavender leaves and flowers, olive oil, lemon, balsamic vinegar and honey to make a rough paste.
• Put the lamb in a roasting tin and push the paste into the incisions you made. Finish with the lamb fat-side up. Mix the glaze ingredients together and spoon this over the lamb. Season, then roast for 15 mins.

If lamb gets done sooner, simply turn down oven to 170 degrees until ready to serve.

Repeat this two more times for 5 mins on each side so the lamb cooks for a total of 30 mins. Baste with the glaze, turn the lamb again and keep basting for another 10 mins until deep brown and sticky. Remove to a board, cover loosely and leave to rest for 20 mins. Carve into thin slices to serve, then scatter over the reserved sliced chillies.
