I’ve already posted a pork dumpling recipe here a few months ago but I figured with my new Nikon D40, I’d take better pictures while I made it the 3rd time and then show you the step by step process. Actually, I asked my husband to take pictures of me making it since both my hands were very busy.
Trust me, once you see the step by step pictures, you’ll realize that it’s not that hard to make pork dumplings. Not at all. It’s easy that you’ll be making ‘em every week. The family loves it. My son can’t stop talking about it. My husband talks about how good dinner was while we’re in bed getting ready to sleep. It’s that GOOD 
.
INGREDIENTS :
1 pack of wonton wrappers
6 button mushrooms, finely chopped
1/2 half of medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, finely copped
1 package of ground pork
2 tsp of rice cooking wine
salt and pepper
1 egg
1 cup of water (for sealing wonton wrappers)
vegetable oil
Except for the wrappers, water and oil, mix the rest of the ingredients together in bowl. Brush the edges of a wonton wrapper with water.
Put a spoonful of the fillings in the middle of the wrapper.
Fold it in half and push tightly. Discard the edges. Repeat the process for all the wrappers.
Heat a non-stick pan, then add maybe about 3 tbsp of oil. Lay down the dumplings at the bottom of the pan. Let them fry for about 2-3 minutes.
Then pour maybe 1/4 cup of water. Cover the pan.
DO NOT OPEN. Let the dumplings steam for about 5-6 minutes or maybe longer.
Make the sauce while the dumplings are steaming. Whisk together, 2 spoonfuls of Hoisin sauce and 1/2 cup of soy sauce. Sprinkle a little bit of red pepper flakes.
That’s what it looks like after steaming. You’ll probably repeat the process in batches until you’ve cooked all your dumplings. Dump the remaining water after setting aside the dumplings to repeat the whole process until you’ve steamed all dumplings
You can make the dumplings, store in a freezer bag and store in the freezer. Whenever you’re craving for them, just thaw some out and do the step by step steaming process. Perfect for appetizers or lunch. Or just dinner but make sure to make lots .
