Provided by Anne Burrell

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

2 large egg whites
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 pounds large shrimp, peeled, deveined and coarsely chopped
2 large cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
2 scallions, chopped
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 1/2 tablespoons peeled and grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon soy sauce, plus more if needed
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 pound ground pork
3 tablespoons soy sauce, plus more if needed
1 1/2 tablespoons peeled and grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon sambal oelek
4 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
4 scallions, chopped
2 large egg whites
One 4-ounce can water chestnuts, drained and minced
1/2 orange bell pepper, finely diced
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup fish sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon sambal oelek
One 10-ounce package round wonton wrappers
4 large napa cabbage leaves, optional
2 tablespoons canola oil, or more as needed

Steps:

  • For the shrimp shumai filling: Whisk to combine the egg whites and cornstarch in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Add the shrimp to a food processor and pulse into a chunky paste. Transfer the shrimp to a medium bowl and stir in the cornstarch and egg white mixture.
  • Stir in the garlic, scallions, lemon zest, lemon juice, ginger, soy sauce and toasted sesame oil.
  • To determine if the filling is seasoned well, make a small patty, about 2 tablespoons. Place a small saute pan over medium-high heat and add the canola oil. Once heated, add the tester patty and cook on both sides until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and place on a paper-towel-lined plate, then taste. Adjust the seasoning of the remaining filling with soy sauce if needed.
  • For the pork pot sticker filling: Mix to combine the pork, soy sauce, ginger, sambal, garlic, scallions, egg whites, water chestnuts, bell pepper and cilantro in a large bowl.
  • To determine if the filling is seasoned well, make a small patty, about 2 tablespoons. Place a small saute pan over medium-high heat and add the canola oil. Once heated, add the tester patty and cook on both sides until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and place on a paper-towel-lined plate, then taste. Adjust the seasoning of the remaining filling with soy sauce if needed.
  • To make the dipping sauce: Combine the rice wine vinegar, fish sauce, sugar and sambal in a container, then cover and shake to combine. Set the dipping sauce aside while you assemble the dumplings.
  • To cook: Place half of the wonton wrappers on a clean surface and add about 2 teaspoons of the shrimp filling to the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold and pleat as you gather the wrapping around the filling, leaving the top of the filling uncovered. Gently tap the shumai on your work surface, flattening the bottom and allowing it to stand upright, and form into a basket shape.
  • Place the remaining half of the wonton wrappers on a clean work surface and add about 2 teaspoons of the pork filling to the center of each wrapper. Working one at a time, brush the edges of the wrapper with water and fold over to make a half-moon. Pinch the edges to pleat and close the filling into the center.
  • Line each tray of a bamboo steamer with a round of perforated steamer parchment paper or the cabbage leaves, if using, and cover with the lid. Bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a boil in a large, wide pan. Set the bamboo steamer over the pot. Continue to add water as needed.
  • Working in batches, place the shrimp shumai in the steamer and cover with the lid. Steam the shumai until cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the pork pot stickers and pour in 1/4 cup water. Cover the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, then remove the cover and cook until the remaining water has evaporated and the bottom of the pot stickers are golden and crisp.
  • Serve the shrimp shumai and the pork pot stickers with the dipping sauce.

PORK AND GINGER POT STICKERS



Pork and Ginger Pot Stickers image

Provided by Ming Tsai

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups chopped napa cabbage
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 pound ground pork (Don't get lean pork, the fat is good for juicy and flavorful dumplings)
2 tablespoons minced ginger
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons thin soy sauce
3 tablespoons sesame oil
1 egg
1 to 2 cups chicken stock or water
4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups boiling water
1/3 cup thin soy sauce
1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
1/3 cup sliced scallions
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sambal

Steps:

  • Sprinkle cabbage with the 1/2 tablespoon of salt and let stand for 30 minutes. Place the cabbage on a clean dishtowel or cheesecloth and squeeze out any water. The dryer the cabbage the better. In a large bowl thoroughly mix the cabbage with all of the other ingredients, except the chicken stock. Cook a tester to check the seasoning.;
  • GUEST CHEF: MING'S MOM (IRIS LEE TSAI) .
  • In a stainless steel bowl mix flour and salt. Slowly add hot water to flour in 1/4 cup increments. Mix with chopsticks until a ball is formed and the dough is not too hot to handle. On a floured surface, knead dough until it becomes a smooth, elastic ball. Place back in bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rest for at least 1 hour. Working on a floured surface with floured hands, roll out dough to form a long 'noodle', 1-inch in diameter. Cut 1/2-inch pieces and turn them over so the cut sides are facing up. Flatten with your palm and roll out thin using a rolling pin. The dumpling wrapper should end up about 3 inches in diameter.
  • MAKING THE DUMPLINGS: Place a small mound of filling in the middle of the wrapper. (Be very careful not to touch the edges with the filling as this will impede proper sealing of the dumplings. Nothing is worse than dumplings breaking during cooking.) Fold the wrapper in half to form a half moon shape. Starting on one end fold/pinch the wrapper tightly together. Proceed with this fold/pinch method until the dumpling is completely sealed. There will be approximately 10 to 14 folds per dumpling. Rest the dumplings with the folded edges straight up.
  • COOKING THE DUMPLINGS: In a hot saute pan coated well with oil, place pot stickers flat side down and cook until the bottom is browned. Have pan cover ready and add 1 cup of chicken stock, cover immediately. Be careful, the liquid will splatter! The stock will steam the pot stickers. Check them in 5 minutes as more stock may be needed. The trick here is that once the dumplings are firm and fully cooked the stock will evaporate and the bottoms will crisp-up again.
  • Combine all and serve in a small bowl.
  • PLATING: Serve pot stickers on a large platter lined with lettuce with a bowl of dipping sauce on the side.

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 20m

Yield 8 dozen, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup hot water
1 tablespoon shortening or 1 tablespoon oil
1 lb ground pork
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 pinch sugar
salt and pepper
3 green onions, chopped
1 egg
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon chili oil
1 green onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, salt, hot water and shortening in a bowl and incorporate into a smooth dough. Allow the dough to rest for 20 minutes, covered.
  • Combine the filling ingredients. Combine the dipping sauce ingredients.
  • Roll the dough out about 1/8 thick. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out 3 inch circles. Brush a little water over the circles and place about 2 teaspoons of filling in center. Fold the circles in half and press to seal, making sure to squeeze out any air. Stand the dumplings up on the folded side and press slightly so that they stand up nicely.
  • To cook, bring a pot of salted water to boil, and boil the dumplings until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain well. The dumplings may be frozen at this point for future use; this recipe makes about 8 dozen. Heat a skillet with about 2 tablespoons oil and fry the dumplings on one side only, until nicely browned. Drain on paper towels.
  • Serve with the dipping sauce.

Tips:

  • To make delicate dumpling skins, handle the dough as little as possible and roll it out thinly.
  • When shaping the dumplings, moisten the edges with water to help them seal properly.
  • Use a well-seasoned flat-bottomed pan to prevent the dumplings from sticking.
  • Add a little bit of oil to the pan before adding the dumplings to help them brown evenly.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the dumplings. Leave some space between each dumpling so that they can cook evenly.
  • When steaming the dumplings, make sure that the water is boiling before adding the dumplings to the steamer. This will help to prevent the dumplings from sticking to the steamer.
  • Serve the dumplings with a dipping sauce, such as the ginger-soy dipping sauce included in this recipe.
