- Stir-fried ground meat and diced vegetables in a spicy sauce produce an Oriental "chili" that can be mounded on steamed rice or buttered noodles to make a quick and satisfying dinner.
- In a bowl, thoroughly combine lamb, soy sauce, sherry, and hoisin sauce.
- Set aside until ready to cook.
- Seed and stem peppers, then cut into 1/2 inch cubes.
- Peel and coarsely chop onion.
- Set peppers and onion aside.
- In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients; set aside.
- Stir cornstarch with an equal amount of cold water, then set aside.
- Place wok over highest heat.
- When wok becomes very hot, add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to center, then roll oil around sides of wok.
- When oil just begins to smoke, add lamb and stir-fry, pressing meat against the sides of the wok, until it loses its raw color and separates into small pieces, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer to a work platter.
- Immediately return wok to highest heat and add remaining tablespoon peanut oil to center.
- Add ginger and garlic and saute for a few seconds.
- Add vegetables and stir-fry until peppers brighten and onion becomes transparent, about 2 minutes.
- Return lamb to wok and pour in sauce.
- Bring sauce to a low boil, then stir in a little cornstarch mixture to lightly thicken.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Turn out onto a heated platter or individual plates.
