I got this from a friend of mine after remarking that I would like to try making some pork dumplings at home. Ingredients:
1/2 cup shredded cabbage or 1/2 cup bok choy |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 lb finely ground lean pork |
1/2 cup minced green onion |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
2 tablespoons shaoxing wine or 2 tablespoons dry sherry |
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
24 thin dumpling wrappers (siu mai) |
Directions:
1. Toss cabbage with salt; place in colander to drain 30 minutes. Squeeze out excess moisture. In a large bowl combine cabbage, pork and remaining ingredients; blend thoroughly. 2. Place a wrapper in palm of one hand; place 1 heaping tbsp of stuffing in center of wrapper. Fold up sides of wrapper against the stuffing in 4 or 5 places. Carefully pick up remaining folds of wrapper, pressing them evenly against stuffing to shape dumplings into an open topped cylinder. Steam dumplings in steamer for 20-25 minutes. |
