Magnolia Flower & Tempeh Dumplings

Magnolia Tempeh Dumplings

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cube the tempeh and put in a food processor. Pulse until it looks minced. Transfer to a bowl.
  2. In a jar (with a lid) combine the hot water, miso, sesame oil and mirin. Cap and shake vigorously until thoroughly mixed. Then pour over the tempeh and mix in well.
  3. Put a lid on the tempeh mixture and leave to marinate for at least 60 minutes. I let mine sit for 3 hours.
  4. Once the tempeh has marinated. Slice the magnolia flowers and buds and gently mix into the tempeh.
  5. Take a teaspoon of the mixture and put in the middle of your defrosted dumpling pastry sheets. Fold and pinch as you would a Cornish pasty.
  6. Place in a bamboo steamer for 20 minutes.
  7. Serve with a dipping sauce of your choice.
