Instructions
Prepare the Pork Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork with soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced scallions, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined; avoid over‑mixing to keep the meat tender.
Time: PT10M
Prep the Dumpling Wrappers
Fill a shallow bowl with water. One at a time, dip each wonton wrapper in the water for 1‑2 seconds to soften, then lay flat on a clean surface. Keep the remaining wrappers covered with a damp towel to prevent drying.
Time: PT10M
Assemble the Lasagna Layers
On a heat‑proof plate that fits inside your steamer, start with a single layer of softened wrappers. Spread a thin layer of pork mixture over the wrappers, then repeat: wrapper, pork, wrapper, pork, until you run out of ingredients, ending with a final wrapper layer on top.
Time: PT5M
Steam the Dumpling Lasagna
Bring a couple of inches of water to a boil in the pot, then place the steamer basket on top. Carefully set the assembled plate inside the steamer, cover, and steam for 25 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked and the wrappers are tender.
Time: PT25M
Temperature: 100°C
Make Garlic Crunch Chili Oil
While the lasagna steams, heat vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until golden brown, then stir in red pepper flakes and toasted sesame seeds. Cook for another 1‑2 minutes until fragrant, then remove from heat.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: 180°C
Finish and Serve
When the lasagna is done, carefully remove the plate from the steamer. Drizzle the hot garlic crunch chili oil evenly over the top, allowing it to seep into the layers. Slice into squares and serve immediately.
Time: PT5M
