Boiled Shrimp and Pork Dumplings image

A couple of weeks ago I went to a market and saw some dumplings in one of the stalls. I wanted to buy some but they were so expensive, so I decided I'd just make them myself. The preparation - filling and shaping the dumplings - does take time, but I think it is worth the result.

Time 1h

Yield 30-40 dumplings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

200 g ground pork
100 g shrimp, finely chopped or ground using food processor
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine
1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon oyster sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
30 -40 wonton wrappers
3 cups chicken stock
salt and pepper, to taste (for the stock)
1 dash mushroom soy sauce (optional, but remember that the stock will look a bit brown)
cauliflower (optional) or carrot, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients except wonton wrappers and stock.
  • Place a teaspoon of meat mixture in the center of wrappers.
  • Enclose the filling - you can shape the wontons into any shape you want. Don't forget to wet the edges of wrappers to ensure the filling is sealed well.
  • Boil the chicken stock over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer.
  • Carefully put dumplings into stock and cook, covered, until dumplings float in the surface. Don't crowd the dumplings - you may need to repeat this step for 2-3 times.
  • Add the vegetables along with the last batch of dumplings, if using.
  • Add salt, pepper, or soy sauce to taste.
  • Enjoy!
