A filling for dumplings?

Either dumplings or spring rolls.

Yes indeed. The recipe is super easy, too.

If it's for spring rolls, add black pepper, fish sauce, egg white, potato starch or cornflour, rice vermicelli, shredded carrot and Jew's ears.
That's how my mommy makes them. (:

>>7854477
Grate the ginger

>>7854478
That sounds really good, actually. I shall have to try that. I just got some spring roll wrappers the other day but haven't used them yet.

>no bamboo shoots
>no water chestnuts
honestly, it'll makes a world of difference if you add these to the food processor.

>>7854497

Yeah, I like the bamboo shoots. I'd have used some if I had them.

I don't know why, but water chestnuts are one of the few foods that I don't care for.

Yeah, and my whiteboy dumpling crimping surely isn't up to a restaurant standard.

>>7854506
They came out great though.

She uses popiah wrappers, which I don't think are made of wheat like regular spring roll wrappers are. Popiah wrappers are kinda see through. The reason is that popiah wrappers turn super crispy when frying.

She also does a beef version, omitting the shrimp and pork and adding shredded fresh yellow turnip or fresh water chestnut (to compensate for the sweetness lost by the omission of shrimp) and a little chilli. DON'T use that canned water chestnut shit. If you can't find fresh water chestnut, yellow turnip is a surprisingly decent substitute. Or jicama.

>Popiah wrappers are kinda see through

Yeah, that's what I bought. This may be wrong, but I always learned that "spring rolls" were made with those transparent wrappers (made from rice, IIRC), whereas "egg rolls" were made with the opaque flour-based wrappers like I used for these dumplings.

>>canned water chestnuts
My local Asian market stocks them fresh, but I've never tried those. Maybe it's only the canned ones I don't like? I also have ready access to fresh Jicama.

>>7854507
lookin good, gjop

>>7854521
Canned ones are terrible. Fresh ones taste pretty similar to jicama.

And yeah, those are the right wrappers to use.

I find her eyebrows to be.... disturbing.

I've never made wontons, but this makes me want to try it. I made gyoza somewhat successfully.

Alright guys, steamed, deep fried, fried, or boiled - which is the best for dumplings?
