  • 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 3 garlic cloves grated

  • Cooking
  • 1 tablespoon oil

Equipment

  • Large skillet with lid
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or small scoop

Method
 

Make the filling
  1. In a bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, dark soy sauce, soy sauce, grated ginger, and grated garlic. Mix until fully combined.
Build the spiral
  1. Lay out 4 wonton wrappers slightly overlapping in a straight line. Spoon filling down the center. Brush the edges with water, roll tightly, then coil into a spiral.
  2. Lay out 6 more wrappers overlapping in a line. Add more filling, attach the strip to the end of the first spiral, and continue rolling to expand the spiral shape. Seal edges with water as needed.
Cook the dumpling spiral
  1. Preheat a skillet over medium heat with a little oil. Place the spiral flat side down and cook until lightly crispy on the bottom.
  2. Add a splash of water, cover immediately, and steam for about 5–8 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 155–160°F.
Finish and serve
  1. Top with spicy chili crisp oil, sesame seeds, and green onions if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

Make sure to seal the wrappers well with water so the spiral stays together.
Cook time may vary depending on skillet size and heat level.
Pork should reach an internal temperature of 155–160°F.
Top with chili crisp, sesame seeds, and green onions for extra flavor.
