Instructions: Helmet of the same name, worn by explorers in African jungles.)

Carve partially frozen lamb against the grain into thin slices; cut each slice into 2 to 3 long strips. Arrange strips on rack in a pan; roast at 350 F. for 5 to 8 minutes or until meat is rare.

Combine soy sauce, 1 tbsp water, sherry, ginger, and red pepper; pour mixture over lamb and marinate 20 minutes (in the fridge, of course). Bring remaining water and lime juice to a boil in wok or skillet.

Drain lamb mixture, and discard liquid; add lamb to wok and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until lamb loses pink color.

Add leeks; continue to cook, stirring, about 1 minutes. Stir in lime rind; toss and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer to combine flavors.

[The following is a true anecdote - but it is better said than written: Spike was at the grocery store recently. Stopped to think for a bit while still in the produce department. A clerk, arranging veggies in their bins, asked if I needed some help. I reached over, picked up a veggie, and said, "No thanks; I just stopped to
take a leek." He didnt think it was funny. I thought it was very amusing.]
