Ingredients

  • 14.3 ounces frozen dumplings or gyoza, any filling
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoons chilli oil or chilli flakes, to taste
  • 1 pieces garlic clove, minced
  • 0.5 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated

 

Steps

    1. Make the dipping sauce: Mix 3 tablespoons soy sauce1 tablespoons rice vinegar1 teaspoons sesame oil1 teaspoons chilli oil or chilli flakes, to taste1 pieces garlic clove, minced, and 0.5 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated together in your ceramic dipping dish. Taste and adjust — more vinegar for brightness, more chilli for heat, more sesame for richness. Set aside.
    2. Load the steamer: Place silicone liners in each tier of your HAPPi STUDIO steamer. Arrange frozen 14.3 ounces frozen dumplings or gyoza, any filling in a single layer with a small gap between each — they expand as they steam and will stick if touching.
    3. Steam from frozen: Fill your pot with an inch of water, bring to a steady simmer. Place the steamer on top, lid on. Steam for 7-8 minutes or frozen dumplings — wrappers should be soft, slightly translucent, and filling cooked through.
    4. Check they are ready: Lift the lid away from you to avoid the steam. The dumplings are done when the wrapper feels soft and slightly sticky and the filling has expanded to fill the wrapper fully.
    5. Serve straight from the steamer: Serve straight from the steamer at the table with the dipping sauce. For a complete dinner, use your second tier to simultaneously steam broccoli or bok choy — 6 minutes is all it needs.
