1 lb ground beef
1 + 1/2 lb Chinese celery, finely chopped
1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
1 egg
2 TBSPs soy sauce
1 TBSP Chinese cooking wine
1 TBSP sesame oil (optional)
1/2 TBSP salt
1 TSP granulated sugar
100 round dumpling wrappers
Add all ingredients (except the dumpling wrappers) into a large bowl and mix together until fully combined.
Scoop a spoonful of the mixture into the centre of a dumpling wrapper.
Dip your finger in water and smear along the edges of the dumpling wrapper.
Fold the dumpling wrapper over to create a half-moon shape, enclosing the filling inside.
Seal the filling inside by pleating the edges together with your finger or pinch the edges together with a fork.
Repeat until all the mixture and dumpling wrappers are used up.
Cook by pan-frying, steaming or boiling.
To Pan-Fry: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.
Add some dumplings and cook 2-3 minutes until bottom is crisp and golden.
Add water (enough to cover the dumplings halfway up), cover, and steam the dumplings for about 5 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
To Steam: In a pot, bring water to boil.
Place some dumplings in steamer on top and steam for 15 to 20 minutes until tender.
To Boil: Fill a large pot with ⅔ water and bring to a boil.
Add some dumplings and cook until they float and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes.
Repeat with remaining dumplings or store uncooked dumplings in the fridge for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
