Ingredients

Instructions

  1. To make the dumpling wrapper, place flour in a bowl and make a well in the middle. Slowly pour in the hot water. Using a spatula or a pair of chopsticks, stir to mix the flour until you get a lumpy well-mixed or shaggy dough (if there are dry spots of flour in the bowl, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time). Transfer flour onto a cleaned surface and knead into a rough dough. Cover with a damp towel and let it rest for about 5 mins. Then, knead the dough until a smooth top forms, about 10-12mins. Leave the dough to rest for about 30mins.

  2. Bring a pot of water to boil and season with ½ teaspoon of salt and a drizzle of oil. Blanch spinach and cabbage for 45secs. Remove and quickly rinse them with cold water. Squeeze out all the liquid and give it a rough chop. Mash pressed tofu and place it into a cheesecloth bag. Wring out as much liquid as possible. Place chopped spinach, cabbage and tofu in a mixing bowl along with chopped scallions, carrots and season with toasted sesame oil, salt, and white pepper. Divide mixture into 24 equal portions and form them into balls.

Chef's Notes

*To measure flour in cups, I used the spoon and level method. Spoon flour into a standard measuring cup, then level the top with a knife without packing the flour, which I had about ~63g in 1/2 cup. *To serve with chili oil, feel free to use my Easy 5-ingredient chili oil recipe

This recipe is great and easy to follow. The filing is simple but soo delicious. I couldn’t figure out how to do the pleats so used another folding technique it but they turned out amazing!! Thank you!

I tried this last night and they are so good! They were gone in minutes :). Homemade dumpling wrappers are so good. Thanks for the step by step recipe to make this doable for a newbie like me

my girlfriend and i made this recipe earlier this week and it was a huge success!! we were a bit wary having never made dumplings before, but the dough instructions were great. the only issue was our dough needed a tiny bit more water than the recipe instructed us to use. i'm already making the recipe again for my extended family for this weekend! thank you Woon Heng for this amazing plant-based dumpling recipe!
