Ingredients
2 packets wanton wrappers
For filling
3 cups ground meat (mutton/pork/chicken/beef)
3 cups chopped onions
2 tbsp grated ginger
¼ cup celery chopped
¼ cup chopped coriander leaves
½ cup spring onions chopped
2 Thai chilies chopped (optional)
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup water
1 tsp salt
For chutney
2 large tomato grated
5 thai red chilies
1 tbsp spring onions
¼ cup green coriander
water as needed
1 tsp lemon juice
salt
Instructions
Mix all ingredients for filling and knead it like a dough for 2 minutes, adding water to make it more homogeneous
Place a small amount of filling in the wrapper and fold it over and form a dumpling by sealing the ends.
Steam the dumplings for 18 minutes.
For chutney
Grate tomatoes
Grind the rest of the ingredients except lemon juice in a blender with little water, taking care not to puree them. Alternatively, you can grind the rest of the ingredients of the chutney in a mortar-pestle.
Using a fork, mix in the tomatoes until they are well mixed together. Add lemon juice.
Note: Coat the slotted plates with a little oil or PAM. That prevents the dumplings from getting stuck. Also, when cooked well, the dumplings should not stick.
