Ingredients
- 8 oz shelled and deveined shrimp
- 2 teaspoons red curry paste
- 2 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- A little egg white
- Cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
- Dumpling wrappers
- Water, for wrapping
Preparation
Step 1
Roughly chop the shrimp into pieces, transfer the shrimp into a bowl and combine it with the red curry paste, fish sauce, cornstarch, egg white and cilantro leaves. Stir to combine into a sticky filling.
To wrap, place a heaping teaspoon of the filling onto the middle of a dumpling wrapper. Dip your index finger into some water and trace the outer edges of the dumpling wrapper. Fold up to form a half moon shape but only pinch to seal the middle part. Turn the dumpling and fold up the other two edges. Seal and pinch to form a nice and tight parcel like below. Repeat the same until you use up all the filling.
Heat up a pot of water and bring it to boil. Drop the dumplings into the hot boiling water. As soon as they float to the top, they are ready. Scoop out with a slotted spoon, shake off the excess water, transfer to a plate and serve immediately.
