    1. 1

      Boil 6 eggs for exactly 6 minutes 20 seconds, then plunge into ice water. Peel carefully.

    2. 2

      Fry the shallots, garlic and ginger with the spices in a little oil for 2 minutes to make a paste. Cool, then mix into the lamb with the salt.

      Divide the lamb into 6. Flatten each into a patty on plastic wrap, set an egg in the middle and wrap evenly, sealing well.

    4. 4

      Roll in flour, then beaten egg, then panko.

    5. 5

      Fry at 170°C (340°F) for 6-7 minutes until deep golden and the lamb is cooked through.
