Curry Dumpling Appetizer Platter: Easy, Flavorful Bites

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder or 1–2 tablespoons curry paste
  • 1/2 cup finely minced yellow onion or shallots
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Optional finely diced vegetables (carrots, green beans, water chestnuts)
  • 40–50 round wonton or gyoza wrappers
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce (for dipping sauce)
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar (for dipping sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (for dipping sauce)
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (for dipping sauce)
  • Optional pinch of sugar or honey (for dipping sauce)
  • Garnish: sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of lean ground beef.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of your chosen curry powder or 1-2 tablespoons of curry paste, 1/2 cup of finely minced yellow onion or shallots, 3 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger.
  3. Pour in 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame oil.
  4. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.
  5. Using clean hands, thoroughly mix all the ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. If adding optional finely diced vegetables, fold them in gently at this stage.
  7. Prepare a small bowl of water; this will be your ‘glue.’ Lay out a few dumpling wrappers on a clean, dry surface.
  8. Place about 1 teaspoon of the curry beef filling in the center of each wrapper.
  9. Dip your finger in the water and lightly moisten the edges of half of the wrapper.
  10. Fold the wrapper in half over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Gently press out any air pockets around the filling.
  11. Pinch and seal the edges firmly. Place the assembled dumplings on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  12. Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  13. Carefully arrange a single layer of dumplings in the skillet, flat-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy.
  14. Pour in about 1/4 cup of water into the skillet and cover with a lid.
  15. Reduce heat to medium-low and steam the dumplings for 5-7 minutes, or until the beef filling is cooked through.
  16. Remove the lid and continue to cook for another minute or two for extra crispy bottoms.
  17. While the dumplings are cooking, whisk together 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes in a small bowl. Add a pinch of sugar or honey if desired.
  18. Once cooked, carefully transfer the hot dumplings to your serving platter.
  19. Garnish generously with sliced green onions, a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro leaves.
  20. Serve immediately with the dipping sauce on the side.
