Instructions
Make the Dumplings
Heat a frying pan and add a little oil.
Add the spinach and cook very briefly, just enough to wilt.
Remove from the pan and immediately place on a plate or tray and put in the fridge or freezer to cool quickly.
Blot any excess moisture, chop the spinach roughly and mix with the tofu, chilis, soy, sesame and cornstarch. Mix well, seasoning to taste.
Spread 6 of the wonton wrappers on the worktable and moisten the edges with a little water.
Spoon 1½ teaspoons of the filling in the middle of each dumpling.
Fold 1 corner of each dumpling on to the opposite corner to create a triangle shape, moistening if necessary.
Make the Dipping Sauce
Mix all of the ingredients well and pour into small dishes
Cook the Dumplings
Steam or pan-fry the dumplings and serve with a dipping sauce, sprinkled with the sesame seeds and fresh coriander.
