  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2         pound  ground lamb
     1/2           cup  pine nuts
  4                     scallions -- finely minced
  1                     whole egg
  2        Tablespoons  black soy sauce -- or mushroom soy sauce (the thick stuff)
  1         Tablespoon  dry sherry
  1         Tablespoon  cornstarch
  2                     yellow squash -- 8-inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide
  2                     zucchini -- 8-inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide
                        Sauce:
  1                cup  chicken broth
  3        Tablespoons  regular soy sauce -- or Kikkoman
  2        Tablespoons  sweet sherry -- such as Dry Sack or Harvey's Bristol Cream
  1         Tablespoon  Worcestershire sauce
     1/4      teaspoon  ground rosemary
  6                     garlic cloves -- crushed and minced
  1         Tablespoon  finely minced fresh ginger
                        juice from 1/2 lime -- strained
     1/4      teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  1         Tablespoon  sugar
  1         Tablespoon  cornstarch -- mixed with 3 Tablespoons cold water

Preheat the oven to 350F. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, pine
nuts, egg, soy sauce, sherry, and cornstarch. Mix well, as if making
meatloaf.

Cut the ends off the yellow squash and zucchini. Use an apple corer to
remove the seeds from the center and hollow out the squashes, creating
tubes. Fill each squash tube with the lamb filling, packing tightly. Bake
in the oven for 20 minutes or until the yellow and green of the squashes
are bright in color.

While these are baking, combine th broth, soy sauce, sweet sherry,
Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, garlic, ginger, lime juice, black pepper,
and sugar in a saucepan. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat
to low.

Stir the cornstarch mixture back into solution. Add it to the sauce in the
pan and bring to a boil, stirring until thickened. Ladle the sauce onto
serving plates as a base sauce.

Place the baked stuffed squashes on a cutting board and cut each into
1-inch slices, being careful to keep the filling intact. With a small
spatula, carefully place the disks of stuffed squash on top of the sauce
on the plates in a decorative pattern and serve.
