Jamaican Fried Dumplings

 

Low & Slow

If you want fried dumplings and have little to no oil, then keep reading. It's a very similar recipe to the one I already have posted with just a slight variation. However, this post is special because I filmed it. So you can watch me make it too. All you need is a bit of pre-planning and patience.

Cheeseburger Dumplings

 

The perfect bite

I have wanted to make cheeseburger dumplings for so long. Some of you already know I have a fierce love for all thing's Asian food. Generally, when I make dumplings, they are always filled with veggies or pork, never beef. I saw someone make cheeseburger dumplings about two years ago on Instagram, and I was so intrigued. So, this was a welcome change from the usual. The ultimate east meets west. It literally tastes like a little mini cheeseburger.

Pork Potstickers

Time for Takeout!

There is nothing more comforting and delicious than dim sum. Next to scallion pancakes, dumplings may be my favorite takeout appetizer. They are crispy yet tender with a juicy and flavorful pork filling. Today I will show you how to wow everyone with the best pork dumplings ever!

Ackee and saltfish with fried dumplings

 

Breakfast is served

There is no way I could have done a month of breakfast recipes and not ventured into ackee and salt fish territory; After all its Jamaica’s national dish and for good reason. In our household it is prepared for breakfast once a week, either Friday or Saturday mornings. I have a cousin who is so in love with ackee she could eat it every day. However I feel like ackee and fried dumpling is a special breakfast, and having it every week makes it not as special. So in an attempt to not take this meal for granted, most times when it is prepared I don’t eat it, I have an omelet instead and wait about three weeks so when I do have it, its extra delicious.

Pumpkin Cabbage Dumplings

M..eat..less

Believe it or not, my lazy self was going to make a salad for this post. Yes a SALAD. Lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage, carrots some raisins and a home-made dressing. After careful consideration, I felt that I would be cheating you guys out of a recipe if I had indeed done this. So with no preparation at all I went into the kitchen with no idea what I would be making for this post. What I saw on the counter was a very large pumpkin my Grand Uncle had given to us. Hence this dumpling was born.
