Fried Edamame Dumplings Recipes

EDAMAME DUMPLINGS WITH TRUFFLE OIL

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil; add edamame. Cook in the boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Strain and transfer edamame to a food processor; add garlic, ginger, 4 tablespoons water, truffle oil, olive oil, soy sauce, and pepper. Puree until completely smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Set a small bowl of water on the table alongside dumpling wrappers and stuffing mixture.
• Take one dumpling wrapper, dip the tip of your index finger in the bowl of water, and rub it along the rim of half of the wrapper rim, making a half-moon shape. Take a small spoonful of stuffing and place in the middle of the wrapper. Gently fold dumpling in half, pressing down the ends so it is sealed. Repeat until all dumplings are made.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add dumplings, cover, and steam until wrapper is soft, 3 to 5 minutes.

JAMAICAN FRIED DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Rub in the butter until it is in pieces no larger than peas. Mix in water 1 tablespoon at a time just until the mixture is wet enough to form into a ball. The dough should be a firm consistency. Knead briefly.
• Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until hot. Break off pieces of the dough and shape into a patty - kind of like a flat biscuit. Place just enough of the dumplings in the pan so they are not crowded. Fry on each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels before serving.

EDAMAME DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• To prepare sauce, combine the first 3 ingredients in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk.
• To prepare dumplings, cook edamame according to package directions; drain. Rinse edamame with cold water; drain well. Combine edamame, juice, sesame oil, cumin, red pepper flakes, garlic, and salt in a food processor, process until smooth.
• Working with 1 wonton wrapper at a time (cover remaining wrappers with a damp towel to prevent drying), spoon about 1 teaspoon edamame mixture in center of each wrapper. Moisten edges of dough with water; fold opposite corners to form a triangle, pinching points to seal. Place dumplings on a large baking sheet sprinkled with cornstarch.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Arrange half of dumplings in a single layer in pan; reduce heat to medium. Cook 1 minute or until bottoms begin to brown; turn. Add 1/4 cup water to pan; cover. Cook 30 seconds; uncover. Cook 1 minute or until liquid evaporates. Repeat procedure with the remaining dumplings and water. Serve immediately with sauce.

• Bring oil to 375 degrees F, then fry the dumplings in batches until golden brown.
