Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil over medium heat. Sauté 1 diced onion for about 3 minutes until translucent, then add 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of Chinese 5 spice powder, and 1 teaspoon of chili powder, sautéing for another 2 minutes. Next, stir in 1 cup each of grated carrots and diced zucchini, along with 2 tablespoons of coconut aminos, cooking for 10 minutes until veggies are tender. Finally, incorporate 1 cup of shredded cabbage and cook for an additional 5 minutes until slightly softened.
- Fill a shallow dish with warm water and soak each rice paper sheet for 1-2 minutes until pliable. Lay the softened wrapper on a clean plate, and place a spoonful of the veggie filling in the center. Sprinkle with chopped spring onions, then carefully fold in the edges and roll tightly, ensuring the seam side is down.
- Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (390°F). Lightly brush the basket with a small amount of oil to prevent sticking. Place the dumplings in a single layer inside the basket, brush the tops lightly with oil, and air fry for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil over medium heat. Carefully add the dumplings in a single layer, frying them for 3-5 minutes on each side until they form a golden and crispy crust.
- Once cooked, remove the dumplings and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce and garnish with additional spring onions.
