Baked lamb is always a win-win option for preparing a delicious dinner. When we bake meat in foil, it is almost always a guarantee that it will turn out tender and juicy, but to truly remember it, we need to use various additional ingredients, marinades, side dishes, etc.
This time I did not want to prepare any side dish for this already excellent fresh meat. Therefore, for this recipe, I used several portioned slices of medium-fat young lamb, and in order to give the meat a brighter taste and a memorable aroma, I used Narsharab sauce. The sauce itself has a characteristic pomegranate sourness, and in order to soften this acidity, we will add a little fragrant high-mountain honey to the sauce, then the sauce will turn out to be more balanced and it will not greatly emphasize the wonderful taste and aroma of baked lamb.

Simmer another 15 minutes. Let's try salt. The best side dish for this dish is rice. How to cook rice, I told in the recipe
Lamb in pomegranate sauce ready. We got two dishes in one - delicious, soft lamb and an interesting pomegranate juice sauce.
Put the rice on a plate, pour over the pomegranate sauce, put the meat. Bon Appetit.
Wash the lamb loin, dry it and cut along the ribs into separate portions.
Clean the bone from the meat by cutting it with a knife.
Loin with bones cleaned from pulp.
It is not necessary to clean the meat, it is more for aesthetics. But if, nevertheless, they decided to clean the bones, then the resulting "trimmings" of meat can be used for another dish. For example, cut the meat into cubes, lightly fry, and bring to readiness in the oven.
Beat the meat on both sides and grate with freshly ground pepper.
Put the broken pieces of the loin in a bowl, pour pomegranate juice (250 ml) and leave to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (if the lamb is not young, the meat should be marinated longer by placing it in the refrigerator).
When the meat is marinated, drain the pomegranate juice (but do not pour it out, but leave it for the sauce).
Pat the meat dry with paper towels or paper towels.
Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil well.
Put the pieces of loin and fry on both sides until golden brown.
Transfer the fried loin to a baking dish or large skillet and season with salt.
Place the form in the oven and bring the meat to readiness for 8-10 minutes at a temperature of 180°C.
The main thing is not to overdry the meat. When pierced with the tip of a knife, clear juice should stand out, and the meat should be pinkish on the cut.
cook pomegranate sauce.
Separate 0.5 cups from pomegranate juice (which was used to pickle the loin).
Pour the remaining juice into a small saucepan, put on fire, add sugar and bring to a boil.
Reduce the sauce to half its volume, stirring occasionally.
Add starch to half a glass of cold pomegranate juice and mix well.
Pour the juice, with diluted starch, into the sauce in a thin stream, stirring vigorously (it is not necessary to add juice with starch to the sauce, but then the sauce will turn out less thick).
The idea of the marinade came to mind spontaneously. For a long time I have been adding pomegranate molasses (narsharab) to minced meat for manti or kebabs, which gives the meat a special juiciness and barely perceptible sourness. The pomegranate juice itself, albeit freshly squeezed, is too aggressive for long pickling, another thing is the boiled juice, to the state of a delicious syrup. Mixed with olive oil to further soften the action of acids, it gently and carefully wraps the meat, making it tastier. Garlic also adds another flavor note that harmoniously merges with lamb and pomegranate molasses.
The roasting technology is simple, essentially the same as always for lamb. And as always with meat, it is important not to overdo it, no matter what the recipe is! And remember that for some time after taking the meat out of the oven, the internal temperature continues to rise (about 4-6 ᵒС) and the meat continues to "cook" during the "rest". And of course, God forbid, you interfere with the meat "rest" for 15-20 minutes, otherwise all the juiciness is "down the drain." To keep the meat warm, you can cover it with foil, but the crust will soften a little.
Sorry that there is no cross-sectional photo, I prepared the dish for the guests and it was somehow inconvenient to drive them away from the table while I took a photo :-) And there were no leftovers at all!
