Ingredients

Four 14-ounce racks of lamb

2 cloves minced garlic

1 Tablespoon chopped ginger

2 stems chopped green onion

Pinch of black pepper and salt

1 Tablespoon brown sugar

4 lumps preserved bean curd, mashed

4 ounces cooking sherry

1 ounce seasoned oil

1 teaspoon horseradish or wasabi mustard powder (may substitute wasabi with Italian seasonings)

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, 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.

Serves: 4 to 6
