Fusion Shrimp Dumpling Recipe

Dim Sum fusion shrimp dumpling recipe is a Chinese fusion steamed dumpling. They are packed with protein and will impress your guests.  The Chinese love their dim sum and they make an array of varieties. I wanted to add tofu and uncommon flavors that I liked and came up with this style of dumpling.  Packed with protein they can be used for a meal or added to soup.  They are simple to make and will be the hit at your next dinner party.  Very few things impress your guests like dim sum that you made yourself.

Try my traditional Har Gau dumpling also.  See how to fold the dumpling here.

fusion shrimp dumpling recipe

1 lb. large shrimp cleaned and coarsely chopped

1/4 size of a 14oz single pack tofu

1/2 cup finely chopped chives

1 tablespoon grated ginger

2 cloves garlic finely minced

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Dipping sauce:

Mix all ingredients

4 tablespoon soy sauce

2 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 smashed garlic clove

Red chili flakes

Clean and  chop the shrimp making them small enough to stuff into wonton papers. Cut the tofu and drain by pressing to remove the water.  Crumble into a bowl with the the all other ingredients, mix well.  Set aside a small bowl filled with water to seal the wonton wrappers.  Take one wrapper and place a 1/2 teaspoon of shrimp mix into the center of a wonton wrapper.  Wet two edges of the wrapper with water and fold into a triangle, press to seal edges together.  Start in the center and make small pleats working them on top of each other on the left side, then come back to the center and work the right side.  (see demonstration video).  Press pleats tightly and place on a plate.
