Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • All-purpose flour, tempura flour, and potato starch can be used, but potato starch yields an even crispier texture.
  • The pan must be thoroughly heated before adding the batter—make sure it makes a distinct 'sizzle' sound for a beautiful snowflake pattern and crispiness.
  • Cover the pan immediately after pouring the batter while it’s still hot so steam can cook the top part into a soft, steamed dumpling texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy frozen dumplings in a unique, gourmet texture.
  • People looking for a quick and easy way to cook dumplings as late-night snacks or beer pairings.
