Roasted Tofu and Grilled Seitan Dumplings [Vegan]
This Recipe is :
Serves
20Ingredients
For the Dumpling Dough:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rice flour
- 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional, helps things coagulate)
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 cup warm water
For Cooking the Dumplings:
- Sesame oil, for frying
- Vegetable broth, for steaming
For the Filling:
- Tofu
- Seitan
- Bell peppers, minced
- Onion, chopped
- Garlic, minced
- Scallions, chopped
For the Sauce:
- Sriracha
- Sesame oil
- Agave nectar
- Soy sauce
- Rice vinegar
Preparation
- Sauté the filling ingredients until the vegetables are tender and the tofu and seitan are warmed through. Set aside.
- Mix all dough ingredients together in a big bowl and add the water. The dough’s going to be sticky, but that’s good. When you’re ready to roll it out, heavily flour a board and get to it. You’ll want a side dish of flour for periodic sprinkling, but it’s important to keep it sticky to seal the edges.
- Cut out some circles (about 4 inches in diameter), stuff them up with a tablespoon of filling, seal the edges with a bit of water, and set them aside. A bit of time in the refrigerator before cooking helps the texture, if you have time.
- Pan fry the dumplings in a bit of sesame oil for a few minutes until browned on one side. At that point flip them over, hit the pan with 1/4 cup of the broth, and cover for about 5 minutes of steam time. Serve immediately, or keep under foil in a warm oven until you’re ready.
- To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients together and stir. Go heavier on the vinegar and soy with approximately equal portions of the others.
