Serve as main course with steamed rice for 4.
This dish is inspired by another recipe that I’ve already shared, Sweet Soy Sauce Pork Belly. However these two dishes have their own distinct characteristics. Unlike its sibling, you wouldn’t want to overcook the meat to keep its rich flavor and texture.
Ingredients
- 500 gram of lamb
- 4 tbs sweet soy sauce
- 200 ml water
- 8 pieces of shallots
- 6 cloves of garlic
- 1 tbs salt
- a pinch of pepper
Steps
- Mix shallots and garlic in an electric blender and grind finely. If you don’t have electric blender, boil the shallots and garlic so they become softened. Crush them using spoon and mix well.
- Cut the lamb into cubes
- Heat oil in a pot. Add shallots and garlic mixture and stir fry for 2 minutes.
- Add lamb cubes and stir fry.
- Add salt and pepper, season to taste.
- Add sweet soy sauce and water. Mix it well.
- With a small fire, cook the meat until it becomes soft and the sauce thicken. This usually takes about 15 minutes. Stir the pot every once in a while.
- Serve with steamed rice while it’s still hot. Enjoy.
