Recipe Makes for 4 Servings:

50 wanton wrappers, fresh

7 oz lean pork, ground

1 egg, lightly beaten

1.5 tsp very finely chopped ginger

2 tbsp Chinese rice wine

1 tsp salt

1/4 tsp ground white pepper

Sauce:

1 tsp finely chopped garlic

4 tbsp black soy sauce

1/2 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

4 tbsp chili oil

1 tbsp finely sliced spring onion

Directions:

Most wonton wrappers are about 3-4-inch square. Cut around the wrapper to form circles.

Combine pork, egg, ginger, rice win, salt and pepper. Put a heaped teaspoonful of this in the center of a wrapper. Use your fingertip to smear a little water around the edge of the circle, then fold across to make a semicircle, pressing firmly to enclose the filling.

When all the dumplings are ready, drop in rapidly boiling water and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Drain.

Take 4 bowls and prepare the sauce separately for each portion. Put 1/4 tsp garlic, 1 tbsp black soy sauce, a pinch of sugar and a pinch of cinnamon in the bottom of each bowl.


Divide the boiled dumplings among the 4 bowls and pour 1 tbsp chili oil over each serving. Garnish with a little spring onion. Stir before eating.
