smooth consistency. Mix with sauce in bowl. Cover and store in
refrigerator. To prepare lamb loin: butterfly the loin with a sharp knife
and flatten. Place a quarter of filling ingredients in each loin in order
of listing. Roll up each loin tightly. Roll one sheet of nori around the
loin. To cook lamb loin: melt butter and oil in a teflon pan. Roll loin
around in pan just long enough to cook. Do not cook over too high heat or
nori will shrink from the loin. Transfer to a baking dish and bake in a
preheated 190C oven for 5-10 mins. Turning 2-3 times until the lamb loin
is firm and cooked. Serve it cut or whole with rice and fresh vegetables.
