Ingredients

• 200g lean pork mince
• 1 spring onions, finely sliced
• 3 mushrooms, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tsp grated ginger
• 1 tsp sugar
• 7 small rice paper sheets
• 7 long chives (for tying)
• Chilli oil, sesame seeds, extra chives (to serve)

Method

1. Heat a wok over medium–high, add the pork mince, spring onion, mushrooms, garlic and ginger. Splash in soy sauce, Chinese cooking wine and sugar. Cook and mash into mince for 5 minutes until glossy and slightly reduced. Remove from heat.

2. Wet one rice paper sheet until just soft. Spoon a small mound of the pork mixture into the centre.

3. Fold the sides in, roll up into a money bag shape, then gently tie a softened chive around the middle like a little bow.

4. Repeat with remaining sheets to make 7 money bags/dumplings.

5. Place into a steamer and steam for 3 minutes until bouncy and translucent.

6. Serve warm with chilli oil, sesame seeds and fresh chives.
