This recipe came from the Lokens – the kids have always loved it.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 lb ground pork
- 1/2 tbsp corn starch
- 1/2 tbsp dry sherry
- 1 tbsp tamari (light soy)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2+ green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 pkg wonton wrappers
Directions:
- Mix all ingredients except wrappers
- Place fat tbsp mixture in middle of wonton wrapper
- Pinch corners of wrapper together to form dumpling (or use dumpling press)
- Steam in steamer for 15 – 20 minutes
Serves 4 – 6
Notes:
- I use a bamboo steamer – it helps to spray oil on steamer rack(s) to prevent sticking
- It helps to have a small dish of cornstarch and water, with which you paint the edges of the wonton wrapper prior to assembly
- You can use a ravioli press to make the dumplings
- I serve with several dipping sauces: – a mixture of hoisin sauce, sesame oil, a little vinegar; – soy sauce, minced garlic, brown sugar, vinegar, sesame oil – duck sauce
- We often serve this with sweet + sour red cabbage and sesame noodles
