Shrimp and Pork Wontons in Spicy Sauce

The salted egg fried chicken recipe is adapted from Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine. The sauce is made from salted duck egg yolks. Coating the fried chicken in a buttery and salted egg sauce creates an umami and savory wing!

Dare I say these wontons are better than the infamous ding tai fung spicy wontons? Try to make these scrumptious wontons and decide if its true! My dad would say they are the best in the world since its his recipe

shrimp and pork wontons in spicy sauce

Ingredients you need for your shrimp and pork wontons:

  • ground pork
  • shrimp
  • green onion
  • ginger
  • soy sauce
  • oil
  • sugar
  • salt
  • white pepper
  • chicken bouillon
  • water
  • egg
  • wonton skins
  • water (to boil wontons)
  • cilantro (for garnish)
  • roasted sesame seeds (for garnish)

Ingredients you need for your spicy sauce:

  • hot chili oil (Lao Gan Ma or your own chili oil)
  • soy sauce
  • garlic
  • vegetable oil
  • sugar
  • salt
  • rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp hot chili oil (Lao Gan Ma or your own chili oil)
  • 2 tbs soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced finely
  • 1 tbs vegetable oil, heated on pan
  • 1/2 tbs sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar

Steps to make the shrimp and pork wontons in spicy sauce:

  • Step 1. Cut 8-10 shrimp in small pieces. Slice 1 green onion. Start the filling by adding ground pork, shrimp, green onion, minced ginger, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon, 3 tablespoons water, and 1egg in a bowl. Mix the filling in one direction (makes the filling juicier) to help myosin development. Mixing in one direction for 100 times is a good measurement to ensure its mixed well ◡̈
  • Step 2. Fill a small bowl with little bit of water. Add water to all sides of the wonton wrapper. Add 1/2 tablespoon filling to the center. Fold in a triangle, then fold the sides to the center and press hard to close.
  • Step 3. Add water in a pot and heat pot to medium-high heat. Once the water starts boiling, add wontons to the pot and cook for 8-10 minutes. The wontons are done when they float to the top.
  • Step 4. To make the sauce, add 1 teaspoon chili oil, 2 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1/2 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon rice vinegar in a bowl. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a pot or pan until you see that there is smoking coming out. You want the oil to be really hot!! Add hot vegetable oil to the sauce and mix everything together.
  • Step 5. Add the wontons to the top of the sauce or dip in the sauce. You can garnish wontons with sesame seeds, green onion and cilantro. Hope you enjoy!

My childhood comfort food! 👧🏻 I always look My childhood comfort food! 👧🏻 I always look forward to when my mom would make cheung fun or Hong Kong rice noodles for me as a kid on her way to work on saturday and sunday mornings. Hong Kong rice noodles are known as Cheung fun (腸粉) in Cantonese. Cheung Fun is a popular street snack in Hong Kong and is often served as a dim sum item. These rice noodles are super soft & jiggly after steaming. The rice noodles consists of many layers of noodles so it’s perfect for adding sauces on top. I recommend sauces like XO sauce (dried scallop and shrimp chili oil), hoisin sauce, peanut butter, soy sauce, and oyster sauce for the ultimate food bite! 

google ‘rice noodle dana’ for full recipe or click link in bioooo! 💖 have a lovely weekend my dumplings!

Currently dreaming of this hong kong french toast Currently dreaming of this hong kong french toast and milk tea combo for brekkies 💭My secret ingredient for my hong kong french toast is dairy milk! I dip shokupan (Japanese white bread or asian style white bread) in dairy milk which really helps soften the bread for extra fluffiness and then dip in egg batter and panko bread crumbs (non-traditional method but SO GOOD!) for that extra crispy bite 😋#gonnaneedmilk

Not only is milk a great ingredient for cooking, milk contains 4 B vitamins, which helps our bodies convert food into energy. So essentially the milk in milk tea is a quick and easy way to kickstart your busy day with energy. If you’re lactose intolerant, don’t worry, lactose-free milk  has all the same nutritional benefits as traditional milk! So… when are you trying this recipe?

My new favorite soup right now 😍Here’s a supe My new favorite soup right now 😍Here’s a super easy and not traditional Korean ox bone soup aka Seolleongtang 설렁탕 🥰 Super hot bone broth is topped with beautifully marbled beef, Chinese chives, green onions, and some salt and pepper to taste. Add some Korean kimchi radish and it’s chef’s kiss!

See blog post for more detail on the ingredients (like which bone broth I bought) and full recipe ◡̈ You gotta use somen noodles for this recipe. It only takes 3 minutes to make. Tip: boil noodles at the same time as the broth to make cooking fast🍜

Wishing you luck, health and prosperity with this Wishing you luck, health and prosperity with this turnip cake recipe aka loh bok go in cantonese. Gung Hey Fat Choy ([恭喜发财] my dumplings! PS. I don’t recommend saying lai see dou loi unless you’re very close to that relative or you are a young child lol

Full recipe is linked in bio or find on my bloggg 🧧🐰

I finally finished testing out this recipe (it’s beeen a few months haha)! I was struggling with the texture for a little while. Now, the recipe is good to go ◡̈  The flavor is very savory from the chinese sausage and cured pork belly (made from my dad!) and also sweet from the radish. The texture is firm but not too doughy because I loaded this up with lots and lots of radish. You will never find a restaurant that has as much radish as this homemade recipe. Lastly, I pan fried the turnip cake to give it a nice crisp at the end. 

Don’t forget Chinese New Year is celebrated on the eve (21st of January!) so have a nice dinner with your family on Saturday. Then my mom told me to not clean or do any labor on actual Chinese New Years Day (22nd of January). Wishing all you dumplings good health and wealth in the upcoming year.

This egg drop soup is inspired by my parent’s Ch This egg drop soup is inspired by my parent’s Chinese restaurant 😋Silken tofu is cooked in a sweet chicken broth and cornstarch slurry is added to thicken the soup as well as make the smooth & thick texture. 

Some Cantonese restaurants serve this with real crab meat (highly recommend if you have this!) and the color is on the whiter end (hence why we’re using egg whites!). However, if you want to use the whole egg, feel free to use it! The egg yolk makes the soup more yellow and creamy. 

You can google ‘cook with dana egg drop soup’ for full recipe or find it in my link in bio! Hope you have a wonderful week my dumplings and can’t wait to show you my Chinese New Year recipes!

Fridge clean out time! 🙃 Crab jeon (omelette) o Fridge clean out time! 🙃 Crab jeon (omelette) or korean seafood pancake is a great recipe to use all your leftover ingredients in the fridge. For groceries, I always use the ‘first in, first out’ method meaning the older groceries need to be used before eating the new stuff. I’m chopping up leftover vegetables and onions in small pieces and mixing them together with imitation crab. The pancake may taste different depending on what ingredients you have but once you mix it with eggs and some flour (especially korean pancake mix!), it will taste scrumptious in it’s own unique way. 

The next time you stock up, make sure to keep some type of seafood in the freezer at all times. For me, I tend to buy extra imitation crab and shrimp. Then you will always have good staples to make with your leftover ingredients. 

Check link in bio for recipe or google ‘crab jeon dana’ to find full recipe and directions ◡̈ Stay dry california dumplings, there’s lots of rain here haha.
