Steamed Pork Dumplings Recipe

A Few Key Ingredients For Steamed Pork Dumplings

• Ground Pork – You can also use ground chicken.
• Sesame Oil – A flavorful addition. 
• Wonton Wrappers – You can buy these from the frozen section or take a stab at making yourself with this recipe! 

We recommend using a bamboo steamer to cook your dumplings. You can typically find these in your local grocery store and it’s always a great tool to have on hand for steaming dumplings and vegetables. If you don’t have a bamboo steamer, never fear, you can also prepare these delicious dumplings by using a wire steamer or by propping a plate over a sauté pan filled with water.  

Steamed Pork Dumplings Recipe

Serves 12

Ingredients:  

• 1 pound ground pork  
• 1 (5 ounce) can water chestnuts  
• ¾ cup scallions, finely chopped  
• 4 garlic cloves, minced  
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil  
• 1 egg, beaten 
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce  
• 1 (16 ounce) package wonton wrappers 

Instructions:

1. Strain the water chestnuts and finely chop.
2. Mix together all ingredients except wonton wrappers.
3. Fill the center of each wrapper with 1 heaping spoon of meat filling.
4. Dip a small brush (or your finger) in a small bowl of water and wet edges of wrapper.
5. Fold over to create a triangle and pinch edges together so that the filling cannot escape.
6. Place bamboo steamer in a large sauté pan.
7. Fill the bottom with water, just below the first layer of the steamer so the dumplings do not get wet.
8. Place dumplings 1 inch apart and steam until filling is cooked, about 20 minutes.
