PAN-FRIED DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Blend first 4 ingredients in a food processor. Add vegetables. Using on/off turns, pulse until vegetables are just minced. Drain excess liquid from vegetable mixture. Arrange 12 wonton wrappers on work surface. Lightly brush edges of wrappers with water. Spoon 1 tablespoon vegetable mixture into center of each wrapper. Top with remaining wonton wrappers, pressing to enclose filling completely. Using ravioli cutter or sharp knife, cut edges of wontons. Heat canola oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, fry dumplings until just golden, about 1 minute per side. Bake until dumplings are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer dumplings to serving tray. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Serve with dipping sauce.

PAN-FRIED CHICKEN AND CABBAGE DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• To make the dumplings:
• In a large bowl, mix together the chicken, cabbage, ginger, and scallions until the mixture resembles a fine paste. Add the salt, sugar, chicken powder, white pepper, cornstarch, and toasted sesame oil and continue to stir for 3 to 5 minutes, until well incorporated.
• Dampen a towel under which to keep the rest of the dumpling wrappers while you work.
• Prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet on which to store the already prepared dumplings.
• Place 1½ teaspoons of filling in the center of each dumpling wrapper. Fold the dumpling into a half-moon shape. Hold the dumpling, seam-side up, between your thumb and index finger. Use the index finger and thumb of your other hand to pinch a section of the dumpling edge and pull it toward the web of the holding hand to make a small pleat. Repeat around the edge of the dumpling until you have between 6 and 8 pleats.
• DO AHEAD: After shaping, dumplings can be kept in the refrigerator for up to four days or frozen for up to three months.
• Set up a steamer: Fill a wok with enough water to come up to the lower rim of a steamer but not so much the waterline is above the food bed. (If you do want to DIY it, just use a plate in a pot. Fill a pot with ½ an inch of water. Then make a sort of tripod out of tinfoil by forming three golf ball- sized balls and placing them in the bottom of the pot, making sure their tops rest above the water- line. Rest the plate on the tinfoil, cover, and steam.) Bring water to a boil. Working in batches, add the dumplings, making sure to leave 1½ inches of space between each (they expand as they cook), and steam for 12 to 13 minutes. Let rest for a minute or so to tighten slightly. If you need more water- water tends to evaporate-add boiling, not cold, water so as not to stop the steaming.
• Heat the neutral oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the dumplings, pleat to the side, and pan-fry until golden brown, approximately 1 minute per side.
• To make the dipping sauce:
• Place all ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk together until well mixed and the sugar dissolved.
• DO AHEAD: Dumpling Dipping Sauce can be kept covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.

PAN-FRIED DUMPLINGS WITH CRISPY LATTICE

Steps:

• For the filling: Combine the pork, Napa cabbage, garlic chives, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, wine, toasted sesame oil and salt in a medium bowl and mix well.
• For the dumplings: Spoon about 1/2 ounce of filling on a wrapper and wet the edge with some water. Fold the wrapper in half into a half-moon and seal the edge. Pleat the edge and sit the dumpling with the folds standing up. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
• Preheat a nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add a little canola oil and arrange 6 to 8 of the dumplings bottoms-down in a nice star pattern or circle. Sear the dumplings for 30 to 45 seconds to brown the bottoms. Add 4 tablespoons water, cover with a lid and cook until the pan is dry, about 3 minutes. Drizzle in a little sesame oil and turn the heat up to medium high to brown the bottoms again (keep the lid off but watch so the dumplings do not burn).
• Squirt a few tablespoons of the Lattice Mix around the dumplings. Cover the pan for 45 seconds. Remove the lid and cook until the lattice mix is crispy and golden brown. Remove the dumplings with a thin large spatula and flip them over in one piece onto a plate to reveal the golden-brown bottom. Repeat with the remaining dumplings and Lattice Mix. Serve with the soy-ginger-vinegar Dipping Sauce.
• Mix the cornstarch and water in a squeeze bottle.
• Combine the soy sauce, vinegar and ginger in a small bowl.

• To make the potstickers: Working in batches, lay 4 potsticker wrappers on a clean surface. Keep the remaining wrappers covered with plastic wrap to prevent drying. Put a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of each of the 4 wrappers. Brush the edges with water. Fold the wrappers in half over the filling, pinching the edges together to form semi-circles. Put the potstickers on a baking sheet seam-side up and cover with a clean towel. Repeat until all the potstickers have been formed.
• To cook the potstickers: Heat a large skillet over medium. Add about 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is hot add half the potstickers, seam-side up. Cook the potstckers until the bottoms are golden and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add 1/3 cup broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the cooked potstickers to a platter. Repeat, cooking the remaining potstickers.
• Serve the potstickers warm accompanied by the dipping sauce.

SPICY PAN FRIED CHICKEN LIVERS WITH LEMON GARLIC DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak chicken livers in mixture of buttermilk, hot sauce, and worcestershire sauce for at LEAST 2 hours in the fridge.
• For the sauce you want to mix mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, old bay seasoning and worcestershire sauce in a bowl until fully incorperated. You want to make it before you fry the livers to give the flavors time to mingle. Place in fridge until just about to serve.
• In a bowl combined corn flour, all purpose flour, black pepper, cayenne pepper, old bay and creole seasoning.
• Add your peanut oil to a large sauce pan. Make sure it's large enough to fit the livers, but leave enough room in between so they are not too crowded. Or you can do them in batches.
• Roll the livers in the dry seasoned mixture and place in the hot pan. Try to keep the heat between Med-high to Med.
• Cook about 8-10 minutes on each side. It depends on the size of the livers. Turn down the temp if they start getting too brown too fast.
• If not sure on their being done, you can just brown them on each side and then pop them in a 350F for about 10 minutes.
• Once done, serve immediately with a generous spoon full of dipping sauce.

• Increase heat and bring the stock to a simmer. Skim off any chicken fat that appears on top of the stock and reserve in a bowl. Combine 2 to 3 tablespoons of the reserved fat with flour in a small bowl; stir to make a paste, adding more flour if needed. Add the chicken fat and flour mixture to the stock. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Remove chicken meat from the carcass and add to the stock. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to taste. Continue simmering for 10 to 15 minutes.

CHINESE STEAMED DUMPLINGS WITH DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix ingredients for dipping sauce and set aside.
• Lightly oil a large bowl.
• Put the flour and salt in another large bowl, piled up.
• Make a dent in the top of the pile, and crack the egg into it.
• Mix the egg into the flour.
• Add enough water to the mixture to make a thick dough.
• The consistency should be like bread dough.
• In any case, don't add too much water--it shouldn't be like batter at all!
• Turn the dough out onto the flour-dusted counter, and form into a ball.
• (It helps to flour your hands first).
• Place the dough into the oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap (cellofane).
• Let stand 1 hour.
• Meanwhile mix all ingredients for filling and place in the fridge.
• Next, remove dough and place on flour-dusted counter (or work surface).

• Using a large, round cookie-cutter (or bottom of coffee can or top of glass) cut three-inch rounds.
• Don't place them on top of each other, as they could stick together!
• Knead the leftover pieces together again and cut more rounds until there's no dough left.
• Spoon a bit of the filling into the center of each round and fold in half (to make a semi-circle shape).
• Seal edges with a bit of water, and use tongs of a fork to decorate the edge.
• To prepare, either steam the dumplings (if you have a steamer) for 15 mins, or boil for 10 mins.
• If you boil, add some oil to the water and don't overcrowd the pan--make them in batches.
• If you like, you can fry the dumplings in a skillet or wok to brown them before serving.
• Handle gently!
