Add a little color to life—colorful dumplings

Add a little color to life—colorful dumplings

Festive tri-color dumplings made from three tinted doughs wrapped around well-seasoned pork filling brightened with diced water chestnut and carrot for sweet crunch.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    Knead the three types of flour separately with water, salt, and oil (divided evenly from the main ingredients) into smooth dough, and let it rest for about 30 minutes. Next, prepare the filling as shown in the picture above.

    Chop the meat into minced meat, add salt, cooking wine, pepper, sugar, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, and oyster sauce, and stir in one direction until it becomes sticky.

    Then add ginger powder and five-spice powder and mix well.

    Add it to the minced meat and mix evenly.

    At this time, the dough is almost fully rested. Roll it out thinner with a rolling pin, and use the bottom of a condensed milk bottle to press it into a round shape. This way, the dumpling wrappers are neither too big nor too small, just right.

    After putting boiling water into the pressure cooker and bringing it to a boil, pour in the dumplings, cover with the lid, bring to a boil over high heat and cook for about 1 more minute, then turn off the heat and wait for 2 minutes before opening the lid. Dumplings cooked this way have a chewy skin.
