Ingredients
3 green onions (sliced)
12 ounces boneless leg of lamb
cut into 1-inch cubes (if cubed lamb is not available at your meat market
ask the butcher to prepare it for you)
4 bamboo skewers
6 cups shredded Savoy
Napa
or green cabbage
2 carrots (shredded)
2 tablespoons black or white sesame seeds
1 small jicama
julienned (optional)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce

1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Steps
Mix marinade/dressing ingredients; divide evenly.
Place lamb cubes in a glass dish; pour half of the marinade/dressing over the lamb.
Cover and refrigerate at least two hours.
In a large bowl, toss cabbage, carrots, jicama (optional), onions, and sesame seeds.
Remove lamb and discard marinade.
Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes; divide lamb among the 4 skewers.
On hot grill, cook the lamb skewers 5 to 6 minutes per side (or to desired degree of doneness).
Remove lamb from skewers, add to salad, and toss.
To serve, divide salad evenly on four plates. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
