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
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F/200°C (fan).
- 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.
- Add vegetables: Scatter the frozen edamame beans and chopped bok choy into the sauce and mix them through evenly.
- 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.
- 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.
- Optional broil for crispiness: For a golden, crispy top, broil (grill) the dumplings for an additional 3 minutes at the end of baking.
- 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.
