Steamed Dumplings Recipe
Here’s a great healthy Chinese appetizer, also called Pot Stickers.
Ingredients:
1 lb. Lean Boneless Pork, minced
4 tsp. Soy Sauce
1/2 tsp. Rice Wine
1/2 tsp. fresh Ginger, chopped
2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Sugar
4 1/2 Cups Flour, sifted
9 oz. Cold Water
4 oz. Sesame Oil
Directions:
In a bowl, mix the pork with rice wine, soy sauce, ginger, salt, and sugar, until it becomes a paste. Add in the sesame oil, and mix well.
Add the water gradually to the flour and knead into dough. Let them rest, and then on a flour board, knead until the dough is firm and elastic.
Cut the dough and roll into 1/2 oz. balls, and flatten each lightly with your hand, to a 3” circle, making the center thicker than the edges.
Place 1 Tbsp. of filling into the center of each circle, and pinch the edges together into 18 pleats. Place the dumplings into a steamer and let steam for 5 minutes over high heat.
And Enjoy!
