Thai Roasted Chili Salmon Dumplings in Lemongrass Coconut Broth image

I took a cooking class at a local Gourmet Market. This was absolutely scrumptious! I don't even care for Salmon and loved this soup. You will need to go to an Asian market for some of the ingredients. A bit of work but, fun and well worth it.

  • To Fold the Dumplings:Place 1 heaping teaspoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold in half to enclose the filling to form a half circle. Pinch the edges together to seal. Set the dumplings on a baking sheet lined with wax paper; cover with a towel. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrapppers. (may freeze them at this point).
  • To Make the Broth: Colmbine the coconut milk, chicken stock, galangal, lemongrass and green chilies in a stock pot. jBring to a boil, reduce to a simmer for 15- 20 minutes. Do not continue simmering or the lemongrass will loose its taste. Strain the broth into the soup pot. Add fish sauce, lime leaves, and mushrooms; simmer together for 3-5 minutes. When ready to serve, stir in the lime juice.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dumplings fell apart when I cooked them. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This dish was just okay. The dumplings were a bit bland and the broth was not very flavorful.

This recipe was a little too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll use less chili next time.
