Ingredients
35 round dumpling wrappers (gow gee)
Chinese-style chilli oil, to serve
Spring onion, to serve
Toasted white sesame seeds, to serve
Filling
300g V2 beef-flavoured mince
1 tbsp spring onion, white part only, finely chopped
1 tsp ginger, finely grated
1 tbsp light soy sauce
½ tbsp Shaoxing cooking wine
½ tsp sesame oil
½ teaspoon caster sugar
1 tsp cornflour
Pinch of white pepper
Black Vinegar Dressing
2 ½ tbsp Chinese black vinegar
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp caster sugar
1 tsp sesame oil
1 medium clove garlic, finely grated
1 tbsp spring onion, white part only, minced
Method
For the dumpling filling, place V2 beef-flavoured mince, spring onion, ginger, oyster sauce, light soy
sauce, Shaoxing cooking wine, sesame oil, caster sugar, cornflour and white pepper in a medium
bowl and mix vigorously in one direction until the mixture binds.
Working with one dumpling wrapper at a time, place a teaspoon of filling in the centre. Brush half of
the perimeter of the edge with water. Fold the wet edge over to meet the dry edge to form a semicircle.
Pinch along the edge to seal and enclose the filling. Brush one corner of your semi-circle with
water and fold inward to overlap with the other corner. Press to seal.
To make the black vinegar dressing, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until the sugar
has dissolved. Cover and set aside until required.
Cook dumplings in boiling water until cooked through, about 4 – 6 minutes. Remove from water
using a slotted spoon and divide among serving bowls. Serve immediately with a generous amount
of black vinegar dressing, and chilli oil. Garnish with spring onion and toasted white sesame seeds.
