How to make Mushroom Gyoza (Dim Sum) Bowl

Dim Sum Dough

  1. Place the flour in a mixing bowl, add warm water, and mix with a spoon until combined.

  3. Wrap the dough in cling film and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Mushroom Filling

  1. Heat a small pan and add vegetable oil.

  2. Add shiitake mushrooms and sauté for about 2 minutes.

  3. Add spring onions, ginger, and chili, then add oyster sauce and fish sauce. Mix well.

  4. Turn off the heat and set aside to cool before filling the dim sums.

Gyoza

  1. Roll out the dough using a pasta roller to about 3mm thick sheets.

  2. Cut out round discs using a glass and dust with corn flour.

  3. Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper.

  4. Dab the wrapper edges with water, fold over to create a half-moon, and seal.

  5. Pleat the edges and flatten the bottom so they can stand.

    Yes, you can make a gluten-free version of the Mushroom Gyoza Bowl by using gluten-free flour for the gyoza wrappers.
