Repost @peachonomics Pan fried bao with celery, water chestnut, woodear mushroom and pork filling (this is another classic dumpling filling - perhaps lesser known outside China but it’s so delicious! I don’t love celery but I love celery in this!) ground pork is the OG but can sub for minced shrimp or ground chicken. It packs much more veg 🌱 than meat, and thanks to the pre-made dumpling wrapper trick these are easy to make (makes ~28): - Ingredients: 1/2 lb ground pork, ginger (5-6 thin slices - minced), 3-4 stalks of celery finely chopped, 1 c rehydrated woodear mushroom finely chopped, 1/2 c water chestnut finely chopped (I used tinned), 1 scallion chopped, 2.5 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp shao xing cooking wine, 2 tbsp water, and premade dumpling wrappers - Make the filling by combining everything but the wrappers. Give it a good mix in one direction for 1 minute (this helps the filling bind and form a nice ball when you cook it - no need for binders like eggs or corn starch) - Take 1/2 tsp of filling and microwave for 15sec or until cooked. Taste and adjust the amount of soy sauce or sesame oil if needed - Place 1 dumpling wrapper on a flat surface and use a rolling pin to roll it out until it’s about 1.5 times the size of the original - Place a dollop of filling in the middle of the wrapper, wet the edges with water and close it (I used a traditional bao fold by continuously pinching small pleats together until I complete a circle - see my story) - Heat a nonstick pan with 1 tsp of cooking oil (use more oil if your pan is not nonstick), place the baos in it, sear on medium heat for 1 minute, add 3 tbsp or more (depending on size of pan), cover and cook on low-medium heat for 5 minutes. Uncover and cook for another minute on medium heat or until the bottoms are nicely golden and crispy . . . . . #asianfoodrecipes #bao #sffoodie #包子 #baozi #水煎包 #eatpretty #dimsum #asianfoodlover #煎餃 #bayareafoodie #bayareaeats #餃子 #chinesefood #homecooking #asianfoodie #asianfood #chinesefood #sffood #nycfoodies #料理写真 #bayareaeats #中華料理 #スタジオエム #다이어트요리 #다이어트레시피 #dumplings #bayareafood #bayareafoodies #homecook https://www.instagram.com/p/COU-noRgDfy/?igshid=1jq72rpxkwnk9
