For the dumplings

Directions

  1. 1

    Combine all soup base ingredients, sans gelatin, and simmer on medium heat for 30 min. Then add in your gelatin packets and stir until everything is dissolved. Pour the strained mixture into an airtight container and let it sit in the fridge until it’s set.

  2. 2

    Combine all dumplings ingredients. Chop your gelatin mixture into small pieces and fold it into your filling mixture. Do not over mix.

  3. 3

    Roll out your storebought dumpling wrappers a little bit, just so they are slightly larger.

  4. 4

    Take a rolled out wrapper, add a tbsp of the pork mixture in the center, and brush the sides with water.

  5. 5

    Fold the edges of the dumpling wrapper in on itself into pleats until it is all joined at the top of the dumpling. Then pinch tightly to secure the wrapper closed.

  6. 6

    Using a steamer basket lined with paper or cabbage, steam the dumplings on medium-high heat for 8 minutes. Plate them up and drizzle with soy, sesame oil, chili oil, and cilantro.
