Ingredients

Scale

Satay Sauce

  • 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang paste
  • 1 tablespoon sweet chilli jam (or sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons fish sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 × 14oz (400ml) can of coconut milk

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pack frozen dumplings (about 20 – 25, pork, chicken or veg)
  • 1/2 cup frozen edamame beans
  • 2 heads of bok choy, chopped

Toppings & Garnishes

  • 3 tablespoons chili oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 scallions, finely sliced
  • A handful of cilantro leaves
  • 1 tablespoon of crushed peanuts
  • 1 tablespoon of crispy onions
  • 1 lime, sliced into wedges


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F/200°C (fan).
  2. Prepare the satay sauce: In a baking dish or ovenproof skillet, whisk together the peanut butter, gochujang paste, sweet chili jam, grated ginger, crushed garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, and coconut milk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add vegetables: Scatter the frozen edamame beans and chopped bok choy into the sauce and mix them through evenly.
  4. Arrange dumplings: Place the frozen dumplings snugly in a single layer in the sauce so that they are roughly half covered, ensuring they stay juicy during baking.
  5. Bake: Transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the dumplings are cooked through.
  6. Optional broil for crispiness: For a golden, crispy top, broil (grill) the dumplings for an additional 3 minutes at the end of baking.
  7. Add toppings and serve: Drizzle the dumplings with chili oil, then scatter crushed peanuts, scallions, cilantro, and crispy onions on top. Squeeze lime wedges over the dumplings before serving and enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe is a quick way to transform frozen dumplings into a flavorful, complete meal.
  • Use a 9 to 11 inch long and 3 to 4 inch deep baking dish or ovenproof skillet for best results.
  • If your baking dish is larger, cover with foil while baking to prevent the sauce from drying out and keep dumplings juicy.
  • The optional broil step adds a crispy texture to the dumplings; skip it if you prefer softer dumplings.
  • Substitute the type of dumplings with pork, chicken, or vegetarian according to preference.
  • Adjust the level of spiciness by varying the amount of gochujang and chili oil.
