Categories: Emlive03
Yield: 16 servings

1/2 lb Ground pork
1 tb Chopped garlic
2 tb Chopped green onions; green
-part only
Drizzle of sesame oil
Drizzle of soy sauce
1/4 c Heavy cream
Salt; to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper;

16 Wonton wrappers
Napa cabbage leaves to line
-the bamboo
Steamer
Soy Sauce; to taste
Asian Chili Oil; to taste

In a food processor, fitted with a metal blade, combine the pork, garlic
and green onions. Puree until smooth. Season the mixture with a drizzle of
sesame oil and soy sauce. Add the cream and process until incorporated.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Remove the mixture from the
processor and set aside. Using a round biscuit cutter, cut the wonton skins
into 2 1/2-inch circles. Place 2 tablespoons of the mixture in the center
of each circle. Moisten the edges with water, pleat half the circle, and
press the edges together, forming a crescent-shaped dumpling. Using your
fingers, pleat around the dumpling and press the edges together to form a
beggar's purse. Repeat the process for the other dumplings. Line a large
steamer with the cabbage leaves. Place the steamer in a wok. Fill the wok
with enough water to touch the bottom of the basket. Cover the steamer and
steam for a couple of minutes to steam the cabbage leaves. Arrange the
dumplings on the leaves and cook until the dumplings are tender, about 6 to
8 minutes, or translucent in color. Serve the warm dumplings with the soy
sauce, and chili oil. This recipe yields 16 dumplings.
