Mongolian Rack Of Lamb Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients above as marinade.
• Trim fat off lamb rack, slit between bones on the bone side, and take off as much fat and silver skin as possible.
• Rub marinade onto the racks and soak overnight.
• Sear racks in hot skillet with meat side down, and then turn rack over to broil 6 to 8 minutes at high heat with meat side up.
• Turn racks over and broil for 2 to 3 more minutes.
• Mix the leftover marinade with corn syrup or honey and apply as glaze.
• Blast in high heat for 1 to 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the lamb in a casserole dish with a lid. Add remaining ingredients plus enough water to just cover. Cook with the lid on for 3 hrs until the meat is tender and the bones pull out easily. Allow to cool still covered in the cooking liquid with the lid on. You can do this 1-2 days in advance and let the lamb cool completely in the fridge. This will make the next step easier.
• When cold, lift the lamb out of the liquid and transfer to a baking tray. Skim fat from the sauce. Reserve half the sauce for the noodles (in 'Try' section, below) and bubble the rest, still in the pan, until thick and syrupy. Pour into a small serving bowl. Heat grill to medium and grill lamb until crisp and hot through, but not too dark.
• Shred the lamb, discarding most of the fat and all the bones, but keep the nice, crisp skin. You can cut the skin off first and leave it in a hot oven while you shred the rest of the meat. To serve, take everything to the table and eat the lamb rolled up in the lettuce leaves with the cucumber, spring onions and sauce, plus the noodles on the side.

Steps:

• Rinse the rack, dry and then rub garlic into the meat and bones. Drizzle with olive oil and allow to stand an hour or so at room temperature.
• In the meantime: Place the ginger in a saucepan; add shallot. In a small bowl, stir mirin, vinegar and soy sauce; add to saucepan. Heat the ingredients to boiling point then remove from heat, cover and leave to stand.
• Cook the rack in a 400F oven for 15 minutes - it should still be pink in the centre. (you can divide the racks before cooking if you prefer the meat a little better done.).
• Spoon some of the sauce on the plate; add the rack. Serve with hot vegetables.

Steps:

• Partially freeze lamb so it's easier to cut and then slice paper thin.
• Soak lamb in cold water for 30 minutes.
• Rinse well under cold running water, drain and squeeze out excess moisture.
• Mix salt, soy sauce, egg, bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and cornflour (cornstarch) in a medium bowl.
• Add lamb to the bowl and mix well. Add one tablespoon of peanut oil, mix again, and leave to marinate in refrigerator for two hours.
• Heat one tablespoon of peanut oil in a wok over medium-high heat and stir fry onion wedges and spring onion (scallion) for one minute. Remove and place aside.
• Heat remaining three tablespoons of peanut oil in the wok swirling to cover the surface.
• Stir fry garlic for 5 seconds.
• Add lamb and stir fry over high heat tossing constantly until brown.
• Add all sauce ingredients except the wine and toss a couple of times.
• Return onion and spring onion to the wok. Pour wine around the outside of the wok so it sizzles, mix and serve at once over rice.

Steps:

• Heat a wok and add half the oil, swirling it round to coat the pan.
• Stir-fry the lamb in 2 batches for 3 minutes each time.
• Remove all the lamb from the wok.
• Reheat the wok and add the other half of oil.
• Add the garlic and spring onion, and stir-fry for 2 minutes, then remove from the wok.
• Add the sauces and sherry to the wok, and bring to the boil.
• Reduce the heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes or until the sauce thickens a little.
• Return the meat and any juices to the wok, and the spring onion, and toss to coat with the sauce.
• Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve.
