Viral Dumpling "Lasagna"

Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground Pork
• 1 package (about 40-50 wrappers) Dumpling or Wonton Wrappers
• 1 cup Napa Cabbage, finely shredded
• 1/2 cup Shiitake Mushrooms, finely chopped
• 6 cloves Minced Garlic
• 1 inch Grated Fresh Ginger
• 3 Green Onions, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
• 1 tbsp Toasted Sesame Oil
• 1/4 tsp Ground White Pepper
• 8 tbsp (2 per ramekin) Water

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease four 8-ounce ramekins.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, shredded napa cabbage, chopped mushrooms, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

3. 3

   Place one dumpling wrapper in the bottom of each ramekin.

4. 4

   Spread a thin, even layer of the pork mixture (about 2 tablespoons) over the wrapper.

5. 5

   Continue layering a wrapper and a thin layer of the pork filling until you have 4-5 layers of filling, pressing down gently to compact. The top layer should be meat.

6. 6

   Place one final wrapper on top of the filling.

7. 7

   Carefully pour 2 tablespoons of water into each ramekin.

8. 8

   Cover the ramekins tightly with aluminum foil.

9. 9

   Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through and the wrappers are tender.

10. 10

    Carefully remove the foil (steam will be hot) and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with extra green onions and chili oil, if desired.
