If you love egg dishes, try combining eggs with ground meat to make these egg dumplings. They can be served as a main dish, and this version is shaped more like potstickers. Steaming them after pan-frying reduces the fat while keeping all the flavor. They’re truly delicious!

Steps

1

In a bowl, combine the ground meat with 1/3 teaspoon salt, a pinch of black pepper, a pinch of five-spice powder (about 2 to 3 shakes), 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, grated ginger, chopped green onion, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1 teaspoon rice wine. Mix thoroughly until well combined, then divide into 10 portions and set aside.
2

Beat 2 eggs with 1 tablespoon milk and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well mixed. Set aside.
3

(I use an electric griddle, but a regular nonstick skillet works too.) Heat the pan over high heat, add a little oil, then reduce to medium-low. Pour in 1 tablespoon of the egg mixture and add one portion of the meat filling.
4

Before the egg is fully set, roll up the filling in the egg. Lightly pan-fry both sides until golden brown.
5

This recipe makes about 10 dumplings. The filling will not be fully cooked yet; only the egg wrapper will be cooked. Place the pan-fried egg dumplings on a plate.
6

Add 1 cup of water to an electric steamer and turn it on. Once steam appears, place the egg dumplings inside and steam for 12 minutes. When steaming, leave a small gap in the lid using a chopstick; do not cover completely.
7

Serve the delicious steamed egg dumplings hot!

Mrs. Chen’s Tips:
1. I use a temperature-controlled griddle set to 356°F (180°C) and just a thin layer of oil for beautiful results.
2. If you don’t have a temperature-controlled griddle, use a nonstick skillet. Heat the pan over high heat, add vegetable oil, then immediately reduce to medium-low for best results.
