Ingredients
- 360 g Wheat flour (Cheng Mian)
- 1 tbsp Ghee
- 50 g Pork belly
- 70 g Bamboo shoots (from the can)
- 200 g raw shrimp
- 1 tbsp Rice wine
- 1 tsp Cornstarch
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- 0.5 l Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 1 jar Peanut sauce (large)
Instructions
- 1. Mix the flour with 120 milliliters of hot water and one tablespoon of lard. Knead the ingredients into a soft, pliable dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
- 2. Place the pork belly in boiling water and cook it for ten minutes. Remove the meat and let it drain. Cut the cooked meat into small cubes.
- 3. Put the bamboo shoots into the boiling water for one minute. Remove them and let them drain. Finely chop the shoots.
- 4. Clean the shrimp thoroughly and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Chop the shrimp finely.
- 5. Mix the chopped shrimp with rice wine, one tablespoon of cornstarch, sugar, sesame oil, half a teaspoon of salt, pepper, the pork cubes, and the chopped bamboo shoots. Mix everything well together.
- 6. Divide the meat filling into 30 equal portions.
- 7. Knead the dough once more briefly. Shape it into a roll with a diameter of about two centimeters. Cut the roll into 30 equal pieces.
- 8. Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Roll each piece of dough into a flat circle with a diameter of about six centimeters.
- 9. Place one portion of the filling in the center of a dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Press the edges firmly together to seal the pocket.
- 10. Heat the oil in a wok. Fry the dough pockets in batches in the hot oil over high heat until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 11. Remove the finished pockets from the oil and let them drain on kitchen paper to absorb excess fat.
- 12. Serve the warm Wan Tans with a peanut dip.
