Ingredients
For the lamb
- 3 lb Lamb ribs (trimmed of excess fat)
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp rice flour
- 1 egg white
- 2 cups vegetable oil
For the dressing
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Chinese black vinegar
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- ½ cup Shaoxin cooking wine
- 2 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
- 1 red chilli (seeded and finely chopped)
- 2 spring onions (finely sliced)
- 1 cucumber (peeled and seeded, cut into chunks)
- 1 tbsp cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- Combine the cumin and salt then toss the ribs in the mix to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or longer.
- Place the ribs in a steamer pan over boiling water and steam for 1½ hours until soft. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
- To make the dressing, mix together the sugar, sesame oil, vinegar, soy sauce and shaoxin cooking wine. Mix in the garlic, chilli and spring onion. Set aside until needed.
- When the lamb has cooled, beat the egg white until you have stiff peaks. Mix the rice flour with about ¾-1 cup water until you have a consistency of double cream. Gently fold in the egg white.
- Heat the oil over a moderate heat until hot (around 350ºf/170ºc) - carefully dip a few lamb ribs into the rice flour mix to lightly coat - tap off any excess. Carefully drop into the oil to fry for about 2-3 minutes each side to crispen slightly. Drain on paper towels and keep warm in a warm oven. Repeat with all the other ribs.
- Arrange the ribs on a large serving platter. Scatter over the cucumber, then pour over the dressing. Finally, scatter with cilantro and hot with rice.
