                 4             ounces  bread cubes -- day-old
                                       cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 2 cups)
                 1/2              cup  chopped fresh mint
                 4        tablespoons  fresh ginger root -- peeled and minced
                 3/4         teaspoon  salt
                 7        tablespoons  Brummel & Brown
                 12                    lamb chop, lean

               Preheat oven to 450°F. Blend first 4 ingredients in processor until finely
               chopped. Add butter pieces and process until paste forms.

               Place chops on large baking sheet. Press bread mixture firmly on top of
               chops to adhere. Roast lamb to desired doneness, about 25 minutes for
               medium-rare. Let stand 5 minutes. Place 2 chops on each of 6 plates.

               Makes 6 servings.


               Note:  Lamb chops should be 5-ounce double cut, each about 1-3/4 inches
               thick.

               NOTES : 11/18/2002 substituted two tablespoons dried rosemary for
                       the mint and ginger -- wonderful.  Served it one time with
                       mint jelly, forgot other times since then.  Usually I just
                       have enought lamb for the two of us, and fix only half of
                       the bread crumb mixture.
