Recipe Instructions

In a small-blade food processor, combine scallions, ginger root, cloves, cilantro, and process until fine. Add mushrooms and bok choy and process until chopped, not pureed. Add pork, sesame oil, soy sauce, and rice wine and process. Do not process ingredients into a paste. Add water chestnuts (rinsed and sliced) and pulse gently.

Place 1 to 2 teaspoons of the pork mixture in the center of each dumpling wrapper. Gather into a purse-like bundle. Dip the top of each bundle into chopped carrots.

Place the dumplings in a steamer, coated with nonstick cooking spray. Steam for 25 minutes, then turn off the heat and allow the steam to subside before lifting the lid and removing the dumplings.

Sprinkle with more soy sauce and serve.
