Dim Sum Asian Dumplings Recipe

  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 teaspoons red curry paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup water as needed
  • 3 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  1. Combine pork, onion, cilantro, red pepper flakes, red curry paste, garam masala, chili powder, onion powder, and garlic powder in a bowl. Mix well, then set aside. Place flour into a separate bowl. Slowly stir in the water as needed until a soft dough is achieved. There may be some water left over. Roll out walnut-sized balls of dough into thin circles.
  2. Fill each of the wrappers with about 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture. Moisten the edges of the wrapper, then fold in half, sealing to create a half moon shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Place the dumplings in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Steam until the dough becomes glossy, about 10 minutes.
  3. To make sauce: Combine peanut butter, cayenne pepper, sugar, and vegetable oil in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl. Cook in the microwave on High for 30 seconds and stir. Serve with the dumplings.
