Hey guys!!!! How are you doing?? Hope you are all good and sounds. So, today I’m gonna share how I make my easy dumplings. Its been few days back Im craving for dumplings. You know, nowadays when you buy food from restaurant, you will get a tasteless, expensive and vegie dumpling (eventhough you are actually bought beef/lamb dumpling), its all vegie you gonna taste (less meat, lots of vegie) π
So, here we go..a simple dumpling from Sofia π
1. Firstly, you gotta buy meat. It depends on you what kind of meat you wanna use. I’m using beef meat here π2. Then, you need to chop garlic, onion, chives, salt, grind black pepper, and some marinated sauce.
Marinated Sauce…
Okay, you got a loooooot of options for marinated sauce. Some love to add salt and black pepper only, some love to add soy sauce, some love to add chilli sauce. Choose whatever you love, in the end it’s yourself who gonna eat it. So, Im using teriyaki sauce, lil japanese sweet sauce and lil bit of sesame oil. I’m creating my own designated dumplings okeyh!! Hahahaha πβ€ There is no right or wrong about it π

I don’t put in freezer, coz the taste might lil bit different. Keep in a cool chiller, in between the normal chiller and freezer. Next day, you can stir fry the meat, or can put straight to the dumpling skin. Im just being lazy, I just put it on the dumpling skin and steam it π4. For dumpling skin, you can make from scratch, but Im too lazy to do that. So I bought the ready made dumpling skin. You can find it in pastry section in market. So, you pick one piece, then place the meat at the centre like this.5. The art of dumplings is how to fold it π₯² This part is not easy, Im just doing the most simplest ways. You can find a lot of youtube videos on how to fold dumplings and find your fav one βΊ6. Okay to steam the dumpling, if you have white thin cloth, you can put it to the bottom of dumplings. This is to avoid torn dumplings. I don’t have that, so I just put in the steamer. If you got better idea, do let me know π7. My cute steamer…I can steam, can boil, can cook rice..Its small and cute π₯°8. Tadaaa!!!!! Here my dumplings!!!! Yummy π. You can put it in container storage and keep it in chiller.
My fav style to eat dumplings with noodles and seaweed soups π₯°
