Wash, drain, and chop the vegetables. Prepare any side dishes that you are planning to serve.
Lay the lamb, chopped vegetables, and side dishes on separate platters on the table.Place the dipping sauces on the table in small individual bowls. Make sure each guest has a complete place setting, including a dipping fork (color-coded if possible) and a small bowl for placing the cooked food.
Bring the broth with the dark soy sauce to a boil, and add the ginger and green onion. Transfer enough broth so that the fondue pot is approximately 2/3 - 3/4 full. (How much broth you need will depend on the size of the fondue pot).
Place the fondue pot on the burner, and keep it simmering throughout the meal. Keep the remaining broth warming on the stovetop.

To serve, invite guests to spear the food with a dipping fork and cook briefly in the broth until cooked, then dip the cooked food in the sauces as desired.
Use a dipping basket to cook the vegetables in batches in the hot broth and ladle out into the soup bowls. Cook the noodles and serve at the end of the meal.

Method
Mix batter ingredients in a medium-sized bowl until thick and smooth. Let the batter sit, covered, for at least 30 minutes. Combine shrimp and batter. Heat a wok or large deep skillet until hot and add the oil for frying. When the oil is barely smoking, deep-fry the shrimp for 2 minutes or until the batter
is just firm. You should do this in several batches. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Heat a small saucepan and when hot, add the oil, dried chiles and garlic. Stir for 30 seconds. Add remaining sauce ingredients and simmer for 2 minutes. Keep warm. Reheat the oil in the wok until it is very
hot, but not smoking. Deep-fry the shrimp again until they are golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove and drain, place on a warm platter, drizzle with the sauce and serve immediately.

Add the lightly beaten egg and the vegetables. This is the wonton filling.

Heat the oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. While the oil is heating, prepare the wontons. Lay a wonton wrapper in front of you. Place a teaspoon of the filling in the middle. Fold up the wonton so that it resembles a nurse’s cap, wetting the edges to seal (if you haven’t made wontons before, see photo instructions on filling wontons).

Add the won tons to the hot oil, a few at a time, sliding them in carefully. Deep-fry the wontons in batches until they are golden brown, turning to make sure they brown evenly. Drain on paper towels or a tempura rack if you have one. As with egg rolls, wontons should be served as soon as possible, to ensure they remain crispy. Serve with Sweet and Sour Sauce or red rice wine vinegar.
