Step 1

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Squeeze roasted garlic from the skins. Add the garlic and heavy cream to a saucepan and bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs and yolks and slowly add the warm heavy cream. Add the cream mixture slowly so as not to cook the eggs. Season with salt and strain through a fine strainer. Place the mixture in 4 small ramekins and bake in a water bath for 25 minutes. Remove and keep warm until serving.

In another saute pan, wilt the spinach and tarragon in a small amount of olive oil. To plate a serving, place the lentils in the center of a large entree plate. Place a small amount of spinach over the lentils and lay the flan over the spinach. Slice a lamb portion into 4 to 5 pieces and fan around the flan with the 1 chop sticking up. Ladle 2 ounces of Lamb Sauce around the flan and garnish with fresh herbs.
