Ingredients:
1 lbsGround Lamb
4 tbspFresh Asian or reg. Basil
- (finely chopped)
3 tbspMinced Fresh Coriander
1 tbspFinely chopped Ginger
2 tspFinely chopped Garlic
1 tspSalt
2 tspSichuan Peppercorns
- roasted and ground
2 tspCoarse. chopped dried chiles
1 tbspLight soy sauce
1 tbspDark soy sauce
2 tbspRice wine or dry sherry
2 tspChinese sesame oil
1/2 lbsCaul fat or crepinette
Procedures:
1This is an asian twist on a french appetizer.
2Caul fat can be ordered from your local butcher.
3Soak the caul fat in a bowl of cold water; this will allow the caul fat to unravel easily.
4In a medium-sized bowl, mix the ground lamb with all the ingredients except the caul fat.
5Cut the caul fat into 20 (5-inch) squares.
6Lay out a square of caul fat and place several tablespoons of lamb mixture onto one end.
7Fold the sides in to form a package.
8Repeat until you have used up all the lamb.
9Recipe can be done ahead to this point and refrigerated.
10Wrap the crepinettes well in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
11Approximately 40 minutes before you are ready to cook, make a charcoal fire and, when the coals are ash white, grill the crepinettes for about 8 minutes on each side, or until they are done (firm to the touch).
