Make sure rib bones and meat are well trimmed, free of fat and silver skin. Season each rack with salt and Mansion Pepper Mixture.
Preheat a large ovenproof pan to medium-high heat. Add oil. When hot, lay racks down in pan, on opposite side of the rib bones. Brown for 3 minutes. Turn racks over so they are lying on the rib bone side and place pan in preheated oven. Roast racks for 12 to 15 minutes (I assume at 350, same as potatoes - HB) for medium-rare or to desired doneness. Remove pan from oven and place lamb on a warm platter and let rest for 4 minutes.
Grind mustard and coriander seeds and white peppercorns in a mini-coffee grinder. In a small bowl, mix ground seeds together with mustards and fresh herbs. When well combined, smear a heavy coat of mustard mixture on top of each rack. Sprinkle bread crumbs over mustard, coating evenly. Place racks in a small roasting pan, crumb side up, and place under preheated broiler. Broil for 2 minutes or until bread crumbs are evenly golden. Remove from broiler and place racks on a cutting board.
Using a large, sharp French knife, carefully cut between each rib bone. Spoon a portion of Cheddar Cheese Scalloped Potatoes at the 12 o'clock position on each of four hot serving plates. Place 4 chops circling the potatoes, 2 chops on each side, crisscrossing their bones toward the edge of the plate. Ladle Roast Garlic-Horseradish Sauce around the rim and garnish with Italian parsley tucked between the chops and scalloped potatoes. Serve immediately.
