Preparation
Preparation:
For Dumplings:
Mix the ground lamb with all the other dumpling ingredients. Lay out 24 goyza or wonton skins. Brush the outside edges of the skins with egg wash. Place a generous 1/2-ounce meat mixture in the center of each skin and fold securely. Repeat process preparing all dumplings. Drop dumplings in a large pot of salted boiling water and cook approximately 6 minutes; the meat should be cooked through.
For Goat Cheese Cream Sauce:
Add oil to skillet; heat over medium-high heat. Add shallots. Once shallots start to sizzle, add garlic. Stir and sauté until they just begin to color. Deglaze with white wine. Add cream and cook until mixture begins to thicken; remove from heat. Whisk the goat cheese into the cream until smooth. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Add the cooked dumplings to the sauce and gently toss to coat evenly. Garnish with a chiffonade of fresh basil and mint.
