Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground pork or chicken (or ground turkey or plant-based protein)
  • 2 cups finely chopped cabbage
  • 3 chopped green onions
  • 2 teaspoons grated ginger
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (naturally brewed)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • About 30 round, thin dumpling wrappers (refrigerated section recommended)
  • Olive or neutral oil for brushing
  • 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat)
  • 1 tablespoon mild curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling (10 minutes): In a large bowl, combine ground meat or protein, chopped cabbage, green onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix gently until just combined, avoiding overworking the meat.
  2. Assemble the Dumplings (15 minutes): Place a dumpling wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of filling into the center. Moisten edges with water, fold in half, and pinch to seal, creating pleats if desired. Repeat until all filling is used (about 30 dumplings).
  3. Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet (5 minutes): Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat. Place dumplings spaced about 1 inch apart.
  4. Brush with Oil and Bake (12-15 minutes): Lightly brush dumplings with olive or neutral oil. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy, rotating the baking sheet halfway through for even crisping.
  5. Make the Creamy Curry Sauce (while baking, 8 minutes): In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, curry powder, honey, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Warm gently over low heat, whisking until smooth and fragrant. Keep warm until serving.

Notes

Brush dumplings with oil before baking to achieve a golden crisp. Keep dumplings spaced evenly on the baking sheet to allow air circulation and prevent steaming. Warm curry sauce gently to avoid coconut milk separation. Dumplings can be frozen before baking and baked from frozen with extra cooking time. Reheat leftovers in oven or toaster oven to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
