Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 block Firm tofu, drained and crumbled
- 2 cups Green cabbage, finely chopped
- 1 medium Carrot, grated
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Gradually add warm water and knead until a smooth dough forms. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. In a bowl, combine crumbled tofu, cabbage, carrot, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, black pepper, and cornstarch. Mix thoroughly.
After the dough has rested, knead it once more and divide into small balls, about the size of a walnut.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin circle about 3 inches in diameter.
Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle. Wet the edge of the wrapper with a little water, fold the dumpling in half, and press the edges to seal tightly.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the dumplings to the boiling water in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot.
Boil the dumplings for about 8-10 minutes or until they float to the top. Make sure the filling is hot and the dough is cooked through.
Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
