Description
A comforting dish that combines the flavors of dumplings and lasagna, layered with a savory pork filling and wonton wrappers for an easy, shareable bake.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground pork
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced (whites and greens)
- 3 cloves garlic, grated
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1–2 tsp chili crisp (to taste)
- Splash of rice vinegar
- 3/4 tsp white pepper (or black pepper)
- 1–2 tbsp chicken broth or water
- Wonton or dumpling wrappers
- Small bowl of water (for sealing wrappers)
- Extra soy sauce or tamari (for garnish)
- Extra chili crisp (for garnish)
- Sliced scallions (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the ground pork, sliced scallions, grated garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce or tamari, toasted sesame oil, chili crisp, rice vinegar, white pepper, and chicken broth or water. Mix everything until the filling looks smooth and well combined.
- Grab a deep baking dish or Dutch oven and spread a thin layer of the pork mixture on the bottom. Place wonton wrappers directly on top, slightly overlapping if needed.
- Continue layering pork mixture and wrappers, gently pressing down between layers so everything stays compact. Finish with a layer of wrappers on top.
- Carefully pour about 1 cup of water or chicken broth around the edges of the dish. Cover tightly with foil.
- Bake in a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven until the pork is fully cooked and the wrappers are soft, about 35 to 50 minutes.
- Once out of the oven, let the dish rest for five to ten minutes. Drizzle with extra soy sauce, sesame oil, and chili crisp to taste.
- Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds, then scoop and serve hot.
