Ingredients
FOR THE DUMPLINGS
- ½ lb ground pork
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoon fresh ginger diced
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 large egg
- 2 green onions green and white parts, chopped
- 2 teaspoon corn starch
- salt and pepper a pinch of each
FOR THE SAUCE
- 1 tablespoon Hot chili oil or more, to taste
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ⅓ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup water plus more, if neccesary to thin sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 3 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
FOR THE DUMPLINGS
- 25 dumpling dough skins
- 1 bowl of water
- 4 large banana leaves, or parchment paper for steaming
- ¼ cup scallions chopped, for garnish
- red pepper flakes optional, for topping
Instructions
PRPARE THE FILLING
- Combine the pork, garlic, ginger, soy, sesame oil, egg, green onions, cornstarch, salt, and pepper together in a medium-sized bowl. . Mix well and set aside.
ASSEMBLE THE DUMPLINGS
- On a work surface, lay out 10 wrappers at a time.
- With a spoon, scoop 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each square.
- Brush the outer edges of the wrappers with water and then close them over in a triangle, or a half-moon shape.
- Press the dough around the filling to avoid air bubbles. If desired, use your fingers and thumbs to create small pleats along the edges of the dumplings. (See images in post for reference)
- Repeat, until filling is all used.
- Heat about 2 inches of water in your wok.
- If using, tear the banana leaves so they fit snugly on each level of your steamer. (optional)
- Once the water is simmering, place the dumplings in your steamer, cover the steamer, and then place in the wok.
- Steam for 20 minutes.
MAKE THE PEANUT SAUCE
- While the dumplings are steaming make the sauce: In a medium-size saucepan, heat the chili oil over medim-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add in the remaining sauce ingredients and stir until combined. Simmer gently for about 4 minutes, until slightly thickened. Add more water, a tablespoon at a time, if necessary. The sauce should be velvety, but not too thick.
PREPARE THE DISH
- Add the steamed dumplings to your serving bowl.
- Ladle the peanut sauce over the top.
- Garnish with chopped scallions and red pepper flakes a drizzle of chile oil, if desired.
Notes
- Do not cook the pork before steaming, the meat mixture cooks in the dumpling during the steaming (or frying or boiling) process.
- Dumpling wrappers and banana leaves can be found at Asian markets and online. Wonton wrapper can be substituted for the dumpling wrappers, and banana leaves can be replaced with parchment paper.
- If you do not have a bamboo steamer, you can steam in a large pot of water, or simply boil them. You can also pan fry the dumplings for about 15 to 18 minutes in a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil.
