If you want to present these cutlets in the best way possible, you can clean the bones a bit, also known as Frenching. The breadcrumbs are a great addition but you can also add to it. Add some paprika or herbs for spice. Make a mint sauce which always goes well with lamb as it cuts through the richness. Serve your lamb cutlets with some roasted or mashed potatoes, and a light green salad.
