Recipe:
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
For the dumplings
100g mushrooms, finely chopped
50g glass noodles, soaked and cut into small pieces
1 carrot, grated
3 spring onions, finely sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
Salt and pepper, to taste For the Korean-style chilli sauce:
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp maple syrup
1 clove garlic, minced
Sesame seeds, for garnish
Chopped spring onions, for garnish
Method:
Prepare the filling by combining tofu, mushrooms, glass noodles, carrot, spring onions, garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
To assemble dumplings, place a teaspoon of filling in the centre of each wrapper. Wet the edges with water, fold to create a half-moon shape, and press to seal.
Heat a non-stick frying pan with a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Place the dumplings in the pan and cook until the bottoms are golden brown.
Add a splash of water to the pan and cover with a lid. Steam for about 5 minutes until the wrappers are tender and the filling is cooked through.
For the sauce, whisk together all the ingredients until well combined.
Serve the dumplings hot, drizzled with the Korean-style chilli sauce and garnished with sesame seeds and spring onions.
Additional Tips:
For added crunch, include finely chopped water chestnuts in the filling.
Pair with a side of vegan kimchi for an authentic Korean meal.
