Directions
Gelatinous Soup Broth:
In a pot, simmer chicken wings with the Red Boat lemongrass curry, water or coconut milk, sugar, and salt for 4 hours.
- Strain the broth, strain out the wings. TIP: wings can be used in a different recipe, or simply pull meat and add to white rice and veggies.
- To the broth, stir in gelatin powder until dissolved.
- Pour broth into a shallow dish, chill until firm, then shred into small pieces with a fork.
Dumplings:
In a bowl, combine ground chicken, ginger, carrot, scallions, fish sauce, cornstarch, sugar, salt, and pepper and mix well.
- Test the filling by frying a small patty to check seasoning, adjusting salt and pepper if needed.
- Gently fold in the chilled curry broth pieces so they remain visible, giving a juicy burst of broth in each bite.
- Keep the filling well-chilled to prevent the broth from melting or marinating the meat—this helps maintain the broth’s light burst effect.
- Wet the perimeter of each dumpling wrapper with water. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each dumpling wrapper, fold in half and seal edges.
- From here you can either freeze dumplings to heat and serve later or if eating fresh, chill dumplings in the fridge for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, set up your steamer.
- Place the dumplings on a lightly oiled steaming tray leaving enough to make sure the steam can flow through. For chilled dumpling steam for 5-8 minutes and for frozen dumplings steam for 8-10 minutes. Test dumplings for doneness.
- These dumplings are best eaten in one bite as they are extremely juicy! They’re delicious as they are but you can serve with a chili crisp or peanut coconut chili sauce for an extra kick.
- Garnish with green onions & cilantro.
