BEEF AND BROCCOLI WONTONS WITH GINGER DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Blend 4 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/4 cup ginger, vinegar and honey in small bowl.
• Combine beef and next 6 ingredients in medium bowl. Mix in remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 2 teaspoons ginger. Place several wrappers on work surface; brush edges lightly with water. Place heaping 1 teaspoon beef filling in center of each. Fold wrappers diagonally in half, pressing edges to seal. Place wontons on waxed paper. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
• Preheat oven to 250°F. Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat; add 1/4 of wontons. Fry until wontons are golden and filling is cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to baking sheet; keep warm in oven. Repeat frying with remaining wontons, using 1/2 tablespoon oil per batch. Serve wontons with sauce.

BEEF AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Velveting: Place 4 ounces cornstarch, 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine and 1 teaspoon baking soda in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
• Mushroom Water: Place 2 cups dried mushrooms (medium-size shiitakes) in a large container. Pour 1 quart of cold water over the mushrooms and cover the container in plastic wrap or top with a lid. Let the mixture rest overnight in the refrigerator. Strain out the liquid and reuse the dried mushrooms as a component in the recipe or save for another recipe.
• Slurry: Pour 1/2 cup cornstarch into 1/2 cup cold water and mix well. If not immediately used, stir frequently until used.
• Marinate your beef in the velvet marinade overnight.
• For flash-frying the beef: You will need a pot filled two-thirds of the way with vegetable oil set to 350˚ F and large enough to dunk your spider or strainer in comfortably. That temperature is high because you will not be frying for an extended time. (Note: Be careful! Don't bring water anywhere near the oil, and watch for any wet utensils, like the spider you used for blanching. If it gets in the oil, the oil will splatter everywhere and potentially burn you. Keep those utensils dry.)
• Heat your separate wok or pot to medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and drop in the garlic, ginger and onion, cooking through for 2 minutes. Then add the broccoli and toss with all of the aromatics.
• Meanwhile, drop your beef into the spider and lower it into the fry pot. Lift your spider out of the bubbling oil after 10 seconds, shake it carefully and add the beef to the wok or pan with the Chinese broccoli.
• Toss everything together, then add the oyster sauce and soy sauce and reduce the mixture slightly for 2 minutes. Add the Shaoxing wine, mushroom water and MSG and reduce for another 2 minutes. Incorporate the slurry to thicken the sauce.
• Remove from the heat and serve on a platter. Top with the fried shallots and scallions.

PORK AND PRAWN BOILED WONTONS

Steps:

• Cook's Note: Chinese chives are also known as garlic chives or Japanese nira.
• For the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the pork, shrimp, chives, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, ginger, rice wine, cornstarch, sesame oil and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
• For the wontons: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and dust lightly with cornstarch. Take 1 wonton wrapper and place 1 1/2 teaspoons filling in the center. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten egg, then gather up the sides and mold around the filling, making a ball shape and twisting the top to secure. Repeat with the remaining wrappers, lining them up on the prepared baking sheet. Place the wontons in the freezer for an hour to firm them up before cooking. Once frozen for an hour, you can cook them or transfer them to an airtight container and freeze until you are ready to use.
• For the chili sauce: In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and chili sauce and set aside.
• Bring a wok halfway full with water to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the wontons in batches until they float to the surface, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon. Garnish with the chives and serve immediately with the chili dipping sauce.
