  • 50g Finely diced Red Onion
  • 50g Finely diced Sweetheart Cabbage
  • 3 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 8g Fresh chopped Coriander
  • 200g Minced Pork
  • 12g Peeled, finely chopped Fresh Ginger
  • Sea Salt and White Pepper
  • 10ml Soy Sauce

For the dip:

Method

  1. Mix the minced pork, red onion, cabbage, garlic, coriander, ginger and soy sauce together.
  2. Season well with salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, pour the hot water onto the flour and mix to a soft dough.
  4. Take 30g of the pastry and roll it into a ball. Then on a floured board, roll it into a circle approx. 1cm/4 inch.
  5. Put 25g of the pork mixture in the middle.
  6. Wet the edges of the pastry with water and then fold up to make a Cornish pasty shape. Crimp the tops to seal.
  7. Make 11 more in the same way.
  8. In a frying pan, heat a little vegetable oil.
  9. Put 6 of the dumplings in the pan and fry for a minute or so to just brown the bases.
  10. Then pour over 70 ml water, cover with a lid and steam cook for 10 minutes. Check to make sure the bottoms of the dumplings don’t get stuck to the pan.
  11. Keep these warm while you cook the rest.
  12. To make the dip, mix the soy sauce and sweet chilli sauce together.
  13. Serve the dumplings alongside the dip.
