Steamed Pork Dumplings image

I love dumplings/pot stickers and these are seriously good. From Canadian LCBO's Food and Drink Magazine. I am sure that these would work with chicken or turkey instead of pork. You can freeze these dumplings for an easy plan-ahead appetizer / snack / dinner. Serve with Recipe #397489.

Time 48m

Yield 40 dumplings, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

500 g extra lean ground pork
1/2 cup green onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, fresh, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, finely grated
1 cup shiitake mushroom, finely chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 egg white
40 wonton wrappers
cabbage leaf, for steaming

Steps:

  • Mix together pork, green onions, cilantro, ginger, mushrooms, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, cornstarch and egg white in a large bowl until well combined.
  • Working with 6 wrappers at a time, use fingertip to wet edges of each wrapper with water.
  • Top each wrapper with 2 teaspoons pork mixture.
  • Bring the 4 corners up towards the top of the filling, pleat the sides of the wrapper to form a cup, and press the wrapper snugly around the filling. The dumpling does not need to be fully enclosed at the top.
  • Keep the dumplings covered with dampened tea towel while working.
  • Place a bamboo steamer in a large pot and add enough water to come just below the base of the bottom steamer.
  • Line each basket with a single layer of cabbage leaves to prevent the dumplings from sticking; important, do not omit or you will be eating of the steamer :).
  • Place a single layer of dumplings on top of leaves.
  • Cover and simmer for 8 minutes or until pork is cooked through; do not overcook.
  • Serve warm with Recipe #397489 or other dip.

These dumplings were easy to make and turned out great! I followed the recipe exactly and they were perfect. I served them with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil.

I'm not usually a fan of pork dumplings, but these were really good! The pork was tender and flavorful, and the wrappers were thin and delicate. I also liked the addition of the chives and ginger.

These pork dumplings were absolutely delicious! The filling was savory and juicy, and the wrappers were cooked perfectly. I loved the dipping sauce, too. It added a nice tangy flavor to the dumplings.
