Servings: persons

1 pound boneless leg of lamb
1 large egg
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon rice wine
2 cups vegetable oil, for passing through
2 Tablespoons rice wine
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
1 Tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon vinegar (distilled white, red wine, rice, or sherry)
1 tablespoon hot bean paste
pinch of ground white pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch, dissolved in 2 tablespoons water
A few 1-inch chunks of lamb fat
1 leek, white part only
5 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
3 scallions, trimmed and slice into 1 inch-long segments

1
Cut the lamb across the grain into 1/4 inch thick slices, approximately 2 inches long and 1 inch wide. In a medium bowl, mix the lamb slices with the egg, cornstarch, and wine. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2
In the meantime, prepare the leek: Trimming for only the white section, cut the leek into large segments. Wash well and dry.
3
For the sauce, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Have the slurry ready in another bowl.
4
Toss the lamb fat and garlic into the wok. Stir-fry until the fat is rendered and the garlic is golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the chunks of fat from the wok. Add the leek and green onion and stir-fry for about 20 seconds.
5
Add the lamb and the sauce mixture, and stir-fry for another 10 seconds to allow the meat to absorb some of the liquid.
6
Turn down the heat, or move the wok off the burner. Add the slurry and stir rapidly until the sauce thickens, about 20 seconds. Serve immediately with rice.
