Fish Consomme With Shrimp Dumplings And Edamame Food

SHRIMP AND EDAMAME DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the insert. Bring the water to a boil. Add the edamame, place a cover on the saucepan, and steam until just tender, 2 to 6.
• Place steamed edamame in a food processor; blend until smooth. Transfer edamame puree to a large bowl.
• Stir the shrimp, bok choy, egg white, ginger, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, garlic, and salt into the edamame puree.
• Pour about 2 tablespoons water in a dish.
• Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the shrimp mixture onto the center of a dumpling wrapper.
• Wet the edge of the wrapper with water, then fold over to create a half-moon shape; pinch edge to seal.
• Place the finished dumpling on a lightly floured baking sheet and cover with a damp towel; repeat with remaining wrappers.
• Working in batches of 6 to 8 dumplings, heat about 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry dumplings until crispy on one side, about 2 minutes.
• Flip dumplings and cook for 1 more minute. Add 1/4 cup water to the skillet and cover.
• Steam dumplings until shrimp are bright pink and no longer transparent in the center, about 4 minutes more. Repeat with remaining dumplings.
• For the dipping sauce: Whisk low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, green onion, sugar, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes together in a shallow bowl until sugar has dissolved.

FRIED EDAMAME DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan add edamame to salted boiling water. Cook for 1 minute. Drain edamame and run under cold water to cool them slightly and add them to a food processor. Using a microplane grate the ginger and add to food processor along with wasabi powder, lemon juice, salt, sesame oil and scallions. Process until a chunky consistency forms.
• 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. In a heat proof pan add about 2 inches oil and heat. When oil is hot add dumplings and fry until golden brown about 10 minutes. Fry off in batches making sure they don't touch in the oil so they won't stick. Remove with a slotted spoon or spider and place on paper towels to absorb the oil. Serve warm on a platter with soy sauce.

Dumplings: Lay out the wrappers on a work surface and place a heaping teaspoon of the filling in the center of each.

Place the dumplings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil and cook the dumplings for about 5 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and serve with the consomme. Garnish with bell peppers and cilantro.
