Ingredients
- 1/2 lb lean ground pork
- 6 white mushrooms, chopped
- 1 green onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons maple sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon grilled sesame oil
- 24 frozen won-ton wraps, thawed
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons maple flakes
- Salt and pepper
- Extra soy sauce, for the dip
- Maple syrup, for the dip (preferably very dark syrup for its strong flavour)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and oil.
- In a bowl, combine pork, mushrooms, green onion, maple sugar, ginger, garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil to make the stuffing. Add salt and pepper. Set aside.
- On a work surface, spread six squares of dough at a time.
- Spoon about 10 ml (2 teaspoons) of stuffing into the center of each square.
- Brush around the squares with a little water and close in triangle or half-moon. Press the dough around the stuffing to remove any air bubbles. Repeat with the rest of the ingredients.
- Place dumplings on a baking sheet, brush with vegetable oil and sprinkle with maple flakes.
- Bake 25 minutes, flipping if necessary.
- Meanwhile, mix equal amounts of soy sauce and maple syrup.
- Serve dumplings with this dipping sauce.
