PORK AND CABBAGE DUMPLINGS

1. For the dumpling filling, place pork mince, Leaderbrand Coleslaw Mix, spring onions, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soy sauce and white pepper in a large bowl and mix until well combined. 

2. To assemble the dumplings, place a heaped teaspoon of filling in the centre of each wrapper. Dip your finger in water and wet the edges of the wrapper. Fold and pinch to seal. You can pleat them if you like or just press the edges tightly together. Place on a tray and cover with a damp tea towel while you fold the rest to avoid the dumplings drying out. 

3. Steam or pan fry the dumplings to cook. See directions for both below.  

4. To steam the dumplings, heat a pot or wok of water to a simmer. Line a bamboo steamer with baking paper. Place dumplings in the basket, spaced slightly apart and sit over the pot of water making sure the basket doesn’t touch the water. Cover and steam for 10–12 minutes, until the pork is cooked through. Serve in baskets or transfer to a serving plate.  

5. To pan fry the dumplings, add a tablespoon of oil to a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add dumplings in a single layer and cook for a couple minutes until the bottoms are golden brown. Pour in ¼ cup water and cover with a lid. Steam for 5-6 minutes, until the water has evaporated and the dumplings are cooked through. Remove the lid and cook for 1-2 minutes to crisp the bottoms again. Transfer to a serving plate.  

6. Serve hot drizzled chilli oil or your favourite dipping sauce. Finish with a sprinkle of sliced spring onions to garnish. 

Note: Freeze uncooked dumplings spaced on a baking paper lined tray. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag or container for up to 3 months.
