Scale
- 400 g turkey Chicken / Pork (Any meat of your preference)
- 60 g Jelly ear wood ear mushroom, black fungus, roughly chopped
- 5 g Salt
- 150 g Onion finely chopped
- 50 g Carrot finely little diced or grated

- 8 g potato starch

- 1 package Dumpling skin
Instructions
- Heat a little oil in a skillet, then add chopped onions and scallions. Cook for about 3 minutes until soft.
- Stir in the diced carrots and wood ear mushrooms. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the carrots soften, then remove from heat and let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine ground meat, soy sauce, fermented black bean paste, garlic paste, salt, and black pepper. Mix vigorously until fully combined and sticky.
- Add the cooled vegetable mixture, water, and potato starch to the meat, stirring until evenly distributed.
- Use a spoon to scoop small balls of filling and place them on a tray lined with baking paper. Keep your hands lightly wet to avoid sticking.
- Wet one side of a wonton wrapper and press it gently onto each meatball, ensuring it sticks tight.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat, place dumplings meat-side up, and fry for 1 to 2 minutes. Add a splash of water and cover to steam for 4 to 5 minutes.
- Remove the lid and turn dumplings over to crisp the meat side until golden brown.
- Remove from pan and serve topped with hoisin sauce, Sichuan chili oil, chopped green onions, and sesame seeds.
Notes
Cooling the vegetable mixture prevents the fat in the meat from melting before cooking.
