How to make Mushroom Gyoza (Dim Sum) Bowl
Dim Sum Dough
Place the flour in a mixing bowl, add warm water, and mix with a spoon until combined.
Knead the dough on a counter with the palm of your hand until smooth and semi-soft.
Wrap the dough in cling film and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Mushroom Filling
Heat a small pan and add vegetable oil.
Add shiitake mushrooms and sauté for about 2 minutes.
Add spring onions, ginger, and chili, then add oyster sauce and fish sauce. Mix well.
Turn off the heat and set aside to cool before filling the dim sums.
Gyoza
Roll out the dough using a pasta roller to about 3mm thick sheets.
Cut out round discs using a glass and dust with corn flour.
Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper.
Dab the wrapper edges with water, fold over to create a half-moon, and seal.
Pleat the edges and flatten the bottom so they can stand.
Sautee the dim sums in a pan with little vegetable oil until golden brown for about 3 minutes. Add a splash of water and cover with a lid for another minute.
Assembly
Drain the noodles and divide them between serving bowls.
Top with carrots, cucumber, herbs, and sautéed dumplings.
Scatter chopped peanuts and spoon over the Nuoc Cham dressing.
Tips & Tricks
Ensure the dough is kneaded well to achieve a smooth texture.
