Ingredients

For the no fold dumplings

  • 400 g ground chicken use extra firm tofu for a plant-based option, blend in a food processor
  • 15 g chives finely sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves finely grated
  • 1 inch ginger finely grated
  • 2 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 16 dumpling wrappers
  • ½ tablespoon sesame seeds

For the dipping sauce

  • 1 garlic clove finely grated
  • ½ inch ginger finely grated
  • 2 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • ½ tablespoon sesame oil
  • ¼ tsp MSG
  • 1 tablespoon chili oil

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped chives, grated garlic, grated ginger, light soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and ground black pepper. Stir until a combined paste is formed.
  • Place a large non-stick pan on low-medium heat (that has a lid), and using an ice cream scoop (or just forming them into little balls in your hand), transfer 1 tablespoon sized balls of the filling to the pan, leaving about an inch or two between each meat ball. Depending on how large your pan is, you may have to use two pans or cook the blanket dumplings in two rounds.
  • Place a dumpling wrapper on top of a ball of filling like a blanket, tucking it around the sides. Repeat for all the filling balls. Pour in 3 tablespoon of water, sprinkle over some sesame seeds, top with the lid, and leave to steam for 6-8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make your chili oil dressing. Combine grated garlic, grated ginger, light soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, MSG, and chili oil in a bowl. Stir to combine.
  • Your dumplings are ready when the filling is cooked through, the wrappers are soft, and the water has evaporated. Top with finely chopped chives and your chili oil dressing. Enjoy!
