Steamed pork and vegetable dumplings

Steamed pork and vegetable dumplings

Ingredients

  • 200 g pork mince
  • 4 Chinese leaves or cabbage leaves, chopped fine
  • 1 spring onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 20 dumpling wrappers

Contains: Wheat

Method

  1. Your child mixes the pork, cabbage, spring onion, ginger and oil.
  2. Spoon a little onto each wrapper; wet the edge and fold. Small hands pinch the edges.
  3. Steam 10 minutes until cooked through. Cool; cut your child's in half.
Safety: Cooked right through, with no pink. Halved for your child; cool.
Storage: Freeze uncooked; steam from frozen with 4 extra minutes.
Tip: Jobs for small hands: pinching the edges. Dumpling-making is an afternoon, not a recipe.
