Pork Shrimp and Napa Cabbage Dumplings
Pork Shrimp and Napa Cabbage Dumplings – juicy dumplings filled with pork, shrimp and napa cabbage. The easiest homemade dumplings recipe ever!
I love all sorts of Chinese dumplings, or jiaozi. I can have dumplings every week, as there are so many variations of dumplings. The fillings can be different and you can either boil the dumplings (as in this Pork Shrimp and Napa Cabbage Dumplings, pan-fried or steamed. Either way, dumplings are absolutely delightful.
This recipe is one of my favorites, with three key ingredients in the fillings: ground pork, shrimp and napa cabbage. The filling is savory, with a bite of the shrimp and fresh napa cabbage. These dumplings are also extremely juicy, so be sure to sink your teeth and enjoy the juiciness.
Chinese dumplings are extremely adaptable. If you don’t eat pork, use ground chicken. If you don’t like shrimp, skip it and add more vegetables. If you can’t find napa cabbage in your store, you may use chives, scallions, or bok choy. If you have never made dumplings, don’t be intimidated, they are so easy to make and there is no special technique or skill needed. Enjoy!

Can I use chicken instead of pork? Do I still use the same amount?
Rasa Malaysia
Yes, chicken is fine, you can also use turkey if you like, yes, same quantity.

Does it have to be cabbage or can I use something else?
Rasa Malaysia
Can you use other vegetables such as regular cabbage if you don’t like cabbage. You can also omit it if you like. If you like chives you can use chives.

Boiled jiaotzi (kuo teh) are great, but I strongly prefer the pan-fried “potsticker” style of cooking them — the browned side, somewhat crispy, is so good.
Rasa Malaysia
You can turn these into a potsticker. Kuo Teh is actually guotie and it means pot stickers, and not the boiled dumplings.

Actually one of the best things I have ever eaten was the Vietnamese steamed dumpling with a sweet meat filling.
arnav
u have any chicken recipe with gravy from Malaysia
Sonja
Made this.. There wasn’t enough flavour to the dumplings, and the meat was a bit dry.
Rasa Malaysia
Did you make the dipping sauce. Once you dip the dumplings into the dipping sauce they will be flavorful. The meat wasn’t supposed to be dry with the cabbage inside…
Grant
Add ginger, chilli & spring onion to your mix, that will give you more flavour..
Rasa Malaysia
Sure!

I am so glad I found you …Again! (long story ?) Your dishes are so easy to make and lack no authentic Asian flair at all! I Have always loved Asian dishes and wished I knew how to cook them; they always seemed so complicated though. But you Rasa, have won this African American girl’s heart with your fantastic recipes. Keep up the great work! Oh btw I made your egg foo young and OMG, just as good if not better tasting than the resteraunt! I’m just so used to the brown gravy, but I didn’t miss it.
Rasa Malaysia
Hi Tonitia, thanks for your sweet comment. I am so happy that you love my recipes. Yes, egg foo young is much better without the brown gravy as you can actually taste the eggs. Thank you again! :)

What brand of black vinegar should we buy?
Rasa Malaysia
Any Chinese brand is fine. If you can’t find Chinese black vinegar, just use Japanese ponzu.
