Description
A delicious and easy lasagna-style dish that combines seasoned pork and wonton wrappers for a dumpling-like experience.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground pork
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced (whites and greens)
- 3 cloves garlic, grated
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1–2 tsp chili crisp (to taste)
- Splash of rice vinegar
- ¾ tsp white pepper (or black pepper)
- 1–2 tbsp chicken broth or water
- Wonton or dumpling wrappers
- Small bowl of water (for sealing wrappers)
- For garnish (optional): Extra soy sauce or tamari, extra chili crisp, sliced scallions, sesame seeds
Instructions
- Add the ground pork, sliced scallions, grated garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce or tamari, toasted sesame oil, chili crisp, rice vinegar, white pepper, and chicken broth or water to a large bowl. Mix everything until smooth and well combined.
- Grab a deep baking dish and spread a thin layer of the pork mixture on the bottom.
- Place wonton or dumpling wrappers directly on top, slightly overlapping if needed.
- Continue layering pork mixture and wrappers, gently pressing down between layers.
- Repeat until filling is used up, finishing with a layer of wrappers on top.
- Carefully pour about 1 cup of water or chicken broth around the edges of the dish.
- Cover tightly with foil or a lid and bake until the pork is fully cooked and the wrappers are soft and tender.
- Once out of the oven, drizzle with extra soy sauce, sesame oil, and chili crisp to taste, then garnish and serve.
Notes
Mix the filling well so it binds. Add broth only to the edges to steam, not drown. Rest a few minutes after baking to hold slices.
