Spinach & Tempeh Dumplings
 
 
This recipe made 28 dumplings, which sounds like a lot, but they are very light.
Prepared by:
Recipe type: Vegan
You need
  • 150gr of (unflavoured) tempeh
  • 250gr frozen spinach, defrosted
  • 1 generous tspn of minced garlic
  • 1-1.5 tbsp capers
  • 3 tbsp of pine nuts
  • ½ tsp of Chilli powder (or more, have a taste)
  • Himalayan rock salt & pepper, to taste
  • Wonton wrappers - I used store bought (I admit, haven't found these organic yet)
To do
  1. whizz the tempeh in the blender till it's rather fine
  2. add the spinach, salt and pepper, blend again for 5-7 seconds
  3. texture should now almost be like a thick paste, but still a bit chunky
  4. add capers, give a quick blend
  5. stir in pine nuts
  6. lightly moisten your wonton wrappers with water (I use a small spray bottle), place a tbsp of the spinach mixture in the middle and scrunch up the sides
  7. place in your steamer, making sure they don't touch each other as they will stick
  8. when all dumplings are folded, steam for about 10 minutes.
Notes
Serve with a dipping sauce of your choice (I mixed sweet soy sauce with a tad of toasted sesame oil and a little bit of apple cider vinegar). Great as a snack, or as part of a meal :-)
