Ground Turkey & Chives Dumplings

This recipe came from the very own master chef in my family- my uncle. If you don’t like pork but love dumplings like me then you will love this recipe. 


Ingredients: 


1- wonton wrappers
2- 1 cup ground turkey
3- sliced prawns (optional)
4- 1/2 green onion finely chopped
5- 2 slices fresh ginger
6- 1 garlic glove
7- 1 tbs Chinese rice wine
8– 1 tbs sesame oil
9- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper


Instructions:

  • Set the wonton wrappers on a large plate. 
  • Mix the meat with all the other ingredients. 
  • Place a small portion (about 1 tablespoon) of the filling into the middle of each wrapper. 
  • Wet the edges of the dumplings with water. Fold the dough over the filling into a half moon shape and pinch the edges to seal. Continue with the remainder of the dumplings. 
  • To cook, bring a large pot of water (or chicken broth) to a boil. Add half the dumplings, giving them a gentle stir so they don’t stick together. Bring the water to a boil and add 1/2 cup of cold water. Cover and repeat. When the dumplings come to a boil for a third time they are ready. Drain and remove. If desired, they can be pan-fried at this point.
