Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons small dried prawns
¼ cup rice vermicelli
3 eggs
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 bunches Chinese chives, finely chopped
2 mushrooms, finely chopped
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
1 pinch ground black pepper
40 round wonton wrappers
1 ¼ cups boiling water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Soak dried prawns in a bowl of hot water for 30 minutes. Drain and finely chop.
  • Soak rice vermicelli in a bowl of warm water for 10 minutes. Drain, squeeze out excess water, and finely chop.
  • Beat eggs and 1 pinch salt together in a bowl until light and foamy. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat; add eggs. Cook until set, about 2 minutes. Flip the omelet and cook 1 minute more. Cool omelet on a work surface; cut into small pieces.
  • Combine egg, prawns, vermicelli, chives, mushrooms, 1 tablespoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sesame oil, and black pepper in a bowl.
  • Wet the edge of a wonton wrapper with water and place 1 tablespoon egg mixture in the center. Fold wonton wrapper in half and pleat the edges with your fingers. Repeat with remaining wrappers and egg mixture.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add half of the dumplings and fry for 2 minutes. Pour in boiling water, cover, and cook until bottoms of dumplings are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove and keep warm. Repeat with remaining dumplings.
