    Easy Vegetable Dumplings

    Jump to Recipe

    Here is your new go-to recipe for Easy Vegetable Dumplings using a from scratch wrapper & a delicious veggie filling! It's easier than it looks! Vegetable Dumplings are one of my favorite foods. Maybe even my absolute favorite. BUT I've never made them myself and honestly never really planned to because of how difficult I expected them to be.

    Crispy dumplings on a plate garnished with scallions.

    But I had a craving and didn't want to spend money eating out and then this recipe was born! I will admit wrapping dumplings is frustrating and time consuming but pretty easy when you get the hang of it! Prepare for the first couple to be ugly but then you'll get better. Grab a friend or your significant other and put them to work! It can be fun! I hope you enjoy these Easy Vegetable Dumplings as much as I do!

    What You Will Need For These Easy Vegetable Dumplings:

    Kitchen Essentials:

    Nothing special here! Just a little patience.

    Main Ingredients:

    • All Purpose Flour
    • Mixed Vegetables
    • Sesame Oil
    • Chili Garlic Sauce
    • Soy Sauce

    Substitutions:

    You could easily use store-bought wrappers for this recipe. Nasoya has a good one that is vegan. I've used them and they are very delicious. As for the vegetables, go wild! Use whatever you have and love. You could even substitute the mushrooms with vegan ground beef.

    How To Make The Best Easy Vegetable Dumplings Every Time:

    The dough wrapper is very easy to make but make sure you use floured hands and a floured surface or else it will get messy. You can stack the wrappers as long as they are well floured.

    Ingredients
     

    Dumpling Wrapper:

    • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
    • 1 ½ teaspoon Salt
    • ½ cup Boiling Water
    • ½ cup Cold Water

    Dumpling Filling:

    • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil or oil of choice
    • 1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger minced
    • 2-3 Garlic Cloves minced
    • 1 ½ cup Mushroom diced

    Instructions

    • Start by making the dumpling wrapper: mix together the all purpose flour and salt in a large bowl. With a wooden spoon stir in the boiling water. Next, add the cold water and mix until the dough is formed. Cover and set aside to rest. 
    • Make the filling: Prep by chopping all the vegetables and mincing the garlic and ginger.
    • In a large pan, add the oil on medium-high heat. Add the vegetable mix and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add in the ginger and garlic and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Next add in the chili garlic sauce and soy sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until veggies are cooked down and soft. Turn off the heat and set aside. 
    • Prepare the dumplings: On a heavily flour surface roll out the dough and use a 3 or 4 inch cookie cutter to cut out the dumpling wrappers. You should get between 30-35 dumplings. 
    • To fill dumplings: Fill up a small dish with water. Dip your finger in to the water and lightly wet around the edge of the wrapper. One at a time. Fill the wrapper with 1- 1 ½ tablespoons of filling and pinch together the sides. If you're feeling fancy, get creative with the way you wrap the dumpling but I kept mine easy. Set aside dumplings on a floured baking tray while you continue with the rest.
    • At this point you can cook how many dumplings you plan to eat and freeze the rest or go ahead and cook all of them. I only recommend cooking the ones you plan to serve immediately. 
    • Boil a half pot of water. I used my metal steamer but use whatever steamer you have. Grease the metal steamer and place the dumplings so they aren't touching. Once the water is boiling, place the steamer basket on top and steam for 10 minutes. If frozen, add 1-2 extra minutes. 
    • Carefully transfer steamed dumplings to a pan with ½ to 1 tablespoon of oil on medium-high heat. Cook until golden and crispy on the bottom about 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan. Serve with sauce of choice and enjoy!
