Ingredients
- 3/4 cup white vinegar
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup chopped garlic
- 2 pounds ground pork
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more for coating the steamer basket and dumplings
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy seasoning sauce, such as Golden Mountain
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large eggs
- 4 ounces small cooked shrimp
- 8 ounces crab claw meat
- About 60 thin shumai-style wonton skins (3-inch squares)
- 6 jalapenos, each cut into 10 wheels (circles), for garnish
- Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
Directions
-
1For the dragon sauce and fried garlic garnish: In a medium saucepan, add the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and Worcestershire and bring to a boil; set aside.
-
2In a separate medium frying pan, heat the oil to medium, add the chopped garlic and fry until golden.
-
3Strain the oil and hold the garlic until ready to plate.
-
4For the dumplings: Put the ground pork in a large mixing bowl.
-
5Add the vegetable oil, oyster sauce, soy seasoning sauce, sugar, black pepper, minced garlic, eggs and 1/4 cup water and mix thoroughly.
-
6Blend the shrimp in a food processor to a coarse texture.
-
7Gently combine the crab meat and ground shrimp with the pork mixture.
-
8Start heating water in the bottom of steamer on the stovetop to bring to a boil.
-
9To prepare the dumplings: Lay out the wonton skins on a flat surface, about 10 at a time, and place a heaping tablespoon of the meat-seafood mixture onto the center of each.
-
10Fold and form the wonton skin up and around the mixture to create a bite-size dragon egg.
-
11Leave the top open so the meat-seafood mixture is visible.
-
12Generously coat the bottom of a steamer basket with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
-
13Place the dumplings into the steamer basket; it's ok if they touch each other.
-
14Once the tray is full, brush a thin layer of vegetable oil onto all the dumplings, then place the basket on the base of the steamer which should be full of boiling water.
-
15Steam each layer until clear droplets form on the dragon eggs, about 10 minutes.
-
16Repeat with the remaining dumplings.
-
17When ready to serve, Place 6 dumplings on a plate and pour some sauce over top.
-
18Place a jalapeno wheel on top of each dragon egg and sprinkle on some fried garlic.
-
19Garnish with cilantro and enjoy.
