The Anova Precision Oven makes steaming a large quantity of dumplings a snap. This recipe for steamed lamb dumplings can be made with ground chicken, beef, pork, or other protein. Notes: This recipe works best when there’s some airflow underneath the dumplings. To do so, the recipe uses a perforated pan, which is now available to order through Anova. If you don't have one, a wooden steamer basket or wire rack placed on a sheet pan will work. No matter the option, you will need a lid. If using a perforated or solid sheet pan, you can cover the dumplings using a 9- by 13-inch cake pan. If you use a wooden steamer basket, you will need to steam the dumplings in batches.

Ingredients

1 lb

Steps

1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare Pan

Rack

Place Asian-style steamer liners on a perforated tray (see note). Alternatively, cut squares of parchment paper to place under each dumpling. (Don’t use a whole sheet of parchment, because it will block the steam from going through the tray.)

2. Make Filling

Combine the ground lamb, baby bok choy, soy sauce, scallion, ginger, cumin, and white pepper in a medium bowl. Mix well.

3. Set Up Dumpling Station

Set up a dumpling-making station, with the water placed next to the wrappers.

4. Fill Dumplings

Dip your finger into the water and brush the outside edge of one of the wrappers with water. Place a mounded teaspoon of filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half and pinch at the top (12 o’clock) to seal.

5. Pleat and Seal

Make 2 to 3 pleats on each side of the dumpling to seal.

6. Arrange Dumplings on Pan

Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Place each sealed dumpling on the prepared pan. Cover with a cake pan or lid (see note).

7. Steam

Rack

Transfer to the oven. Steam dumplings in batches, as needed, for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the wrappers are translucent. Make sure the edges are steamed through, too.
