Instructions

Step 1

Cut the lamb into long pieces 12 cm long and 3 cm wide. Place them in a soup bowl, add the cooking wine, soy sauce, sugar, salt, chopped scallion, minced ginger, star anise, and a small amount of broth. Steam in a steamer over high heat for 20-30 minutes. Pierce with chopsticks to test for tenderness; once fully cooked through, remove and let cool.

Step 2

Mix the flour evenly with water, add the alkali and stir until uniform, then add the baking powder and mix well.

Step 3

Pour the lard into a wok and heat over high heat to 70-80% hot. Coat the lamb pieces with a layer of baking powder, then drop them into the oil and fry until the skin becomes firm and turns golden yellow. Remove and drain off the oil.
