Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup water
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, chopped
  • ½ cup napa cabbage, finely chopped
  • ½ cup carrots, shredded
  • ½ cup tofu, crumbled
  • 1 tbsp grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp five-spice powder
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp chili oil (optional)
  • 2 tbsp agar-agar powder
  • 2 cups vegetable broth

Instructions

  • Prepare the vegan broth: In a saucepan, combine vegetable broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a boil, then stir in agar-agar and simmer for 3 minutes. Let cool to room temperature until solidified into a jelly-like texture. Cut into small cubes.
  • Make the dough: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and water. Knead until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Prepare the filling: In a pan, sauté mushrooms, napa cabbage, carrots, and garlic until softened. Add crumbled tofu, soy sauce, five-spice powder, and grated ginger. Cook for an additional 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  • Assemble the dumplings: Roll the dough into small balls, then flatten each into thin circles. Place a spoonful of the filling and a cube of the vegan broth in the center. Fold and pleat the edges to seal the dumplings.
  • Steam the dumplings: Arrange dumplings in a bamboo steamer lined with parchment paper. Steam for 8-10 minutes or until the wrappers are soft. Serve hot with soy sauce and chili oil.

Notes

  • You can experiment with different fillings, such as using other mushrooms or adding bamboo shoots for more crunch.
  • Ensure the vegan broth has fully solidified before using in the dumplings to avoid leaking during steaming.
