Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 200g shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 cup finely chopped cabbage
  • 1/2 cup grated carrots
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Additional marinade for the shrimp (optional)
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

Begin by finely chopping the shrimp and combining it with vegetables such as cabbage, carrots, and green onions in a mixing bowl.

Step 2: Season the Mixture

Add soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and salt to the shrimp and vegetable mixture. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 3: Assemble the Dumplings

Take a dumpling wrapper and place a small spoonful of the filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper in half, and pinch the edges to seal.

Step 4: Choose Your Cooking Method

Decide whether to steam, pan-fry, or boil the dumplings according to your preference.

Step 5: Cook the Dumplings

If steaming, place the dumplings in a steamer basket over boiling water. For pan-frying, heat a bit of oil in a skillet and add dumplings, cooking until golden.

Step 6: Serve

Once cooked, serve the dumplings hot with your choice of dipping sauce.

Notes

Steaming

Steaming is a gentle cooking method that helps retain the nutrients and flavors of the shrimp and vegetables while ensuring a moist texture in the dumplings.

Mixing

Properly mixing the filling ingredients is crucial to achieve a balanced flavor and texture in the dumpling mixture. Make sure to combine everything evenly.

Wrapping

The technique of wrapping dumplings requires practice. Make sure to seal the edges tightly to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.

Serving

Serve the dumplings hot with a dipping sauce for a flavorful experience. It enhances the taste and complements the freshness of the ingredients.
