Ingredients
Scale
Satay Sauce
- 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon gochujang paste
- 1 tablespoon sweet chilli jam
- 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
- 1 pack frozen dumplings (about 20 – 25, pork, chicken or vegetable)
- 1/2 cup frozen edamame beans
- 2 heads of bok choy, chopped
Toppings
- 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 Oven and Prepare Sauce: Preheat your oven to 400°F/200°C (fan). In a baking dish or ovenproof skillet, whisk together peanut butter, gochujang paste, sweet chili jam, grated ginger, crushed garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, and coconut milk until smooth and creamy.
- Add Vegetables and Arrange Dumplings: Scatter the frozen edamame beans and chopped bok choy into the sauce and mix through. Arrange the frozen dumplings snugly in a single layer over the sauce, ensuring they are roughly half covered to keep them juicy while baking.
- Bake Dumplings: Transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the dumplings are cooked through. For a golden, crispy top, broil (grill) the dumplings for the last 3 minutes if desired.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Remove from the oven and drizzle the dumplings with chili oil. Scatter with crushed peanuts, sliced scallions, cilantro leaves, crispy onions, and sesame seeds. Squeeze lime wedges over the top right before serving and enjoy your flavorful meal.
Notes
- Using a baking dish roughly 9 to 11 inches long and 3 to 4 inches deep helps keep the sauce concentrated and dumplings juicy.
- If using a larger baking dish, cover it with foil to prevent the sauce from drying out during baking.
- This recipe can be made with pork, chicken, or vegetable frozen dumplings depending on your preference.
- The chili oil topping adds a spicy kick but can be omitted or reduced for a milder flavor.
- Broiling at the end is optional but gives a nice golden crust to the dumplings.
- Leftovers keep well and can be reheated gently in the oven or microwave.
