- For Sauce: Sprinkle lamb bones with salt and pepper. Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add in lamb bones and saute/fry till dark brown, about 20 min. Transfer lamb bones to bowl.
- Add in leek, carrot, and onion to same pot. Saute/fry till golden brown, about 12 min. Add in tomato, red wine, garlic, bay leaves, and rosemary; bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Add in 4 c. water and lamb bones with any accumulated juices. Bring to boil. Cover partially, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer till thickened and reduced, about 2 hrs.
- Using tongs, throw away lamb bones. Press vegetables and liquid through sieve into large bowl. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill till cool, then cover and keep refrigerated.)
- For Lamb: Heat 3 Tbsp. oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add in shallots and rosemary; saute/fry till soft, about 3 min. Add in breadcrumbs and saute/fry till golden, about 5 min. Add in olives and stir till moist clumps form, adding more breadcrumbs if mix is loose. Season crumb topping with salt and pepper. Cold.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Working in batches, add in lamb racks to skillet, rounded-side down. Sear till brown, about 6 min. Transfer to large rimmed baking sheet, seared-side up. Spread 1 1/2 tsp. mustard over each. Press crumb topping into mustard. Roast lamb to desired doneness, about 25 min for medium.
- Rewarm sauce over low heat, stirring occasionally. Cut lamb between bones and serve with sauce.

- Comments: The divine lamb dish featured here is a perfect example of the excellent food served at El Olivo. This romantic restaurant, in a restored olive-oil mill, is a great spot to wine and dine someone special - the many wax-drenched candelabra are very nice touches. Service is impeccable, friendly, and attentive, including a sommelier at the ready to pair Spanish wines with the delicious local cuisine. El Olivo is one of three restaurants located in La Residencia, a beautiful resort in the western Majorca town of Deia.
- Serve this refined Spanish dish as they do at the restaurant, with sauteed purple potatoes, mushrooms, baby carrots, and broccoli.
