Ingredients
- 200 grams Vegetarian ground beef
- 50 grams Chives
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 30 Round dumpling wrappers
- 0 as needed Water
Directions
Step 1
Finely chop the chives and set them aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the vegetarian ground beef, chopped chives, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
Step 3
Place one dumpling wrapper on a clean work surface. Keep the remaining wrappers covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.
Step 4
Spoon about a teaspoon of the filling into the center of the wrapper.
Step 5
Dip your finger in water and moisten the edge of the wrapper. Fold it in half to enclose the filling.
Step 6
Pleat the edges or press firmly to seal, ensuring no air is trapped inside. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 7
Prepare a steamer: line the base with parchment paper with small holes cut out for steam to circulate, or lightly oil the steamer.
Step 8
Place dumplings in the steamer, leaving a little space between each one to prevent them from sticking together.
Step 9
Bring water to a boil in a pot or wok where your steamer can fit snugly. Once boiling, place the steamer on top and cover with the lid.
Step 10
Steam the dumplings for 10-12 minutes or until the wrappers become translucent and the filling is heated through.
Step 11
Carefully remove the dumplings from the steamer and serve them warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
