# What You’ll Need:
→ Filling
01 - 9 oz ground chicken
02 - 1 medium carrot, finely shredded
03 - 1 small zucchini, finely shredded
04 - 2 spring onions, finely chopped
05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
07 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce
08 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
09 - 1 teaspoon cornstarch
10 - 0.5 teaspoon ground white pepper
11 - 0.5 teaspoon salt
→ Wrapping and Frying
12 - 20 rice paper wrappers, 8.5 inch diameter
13 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
→ Dipping Sauce
14 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce
15 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
16 - 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
17 - 0.5 teaspoon chili flakes, optional
# Directions:
01 - Combine ground chicken, shredded carrot, shredded zucchini, chopped spring onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, white pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
02 - Fill a large shallow dish with warm water. Submerge one rice paper wrapper in the water for 10 to 15 seconds until it becomes pliable and flexible. Transfer the softened wrapper to a clean, damp kitchen towel.
03 - Place 1 heaping tablespoon of filling in the center of each softened wrapper. Fold the bottom edge up and over the filling, then fold in the left and right sides, and roll tightly toward the top to create a sealed bundle. Repeat this process with the remaining filling and wrappers.
04 - Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Arrange dumplings seam-side down in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes per side, adding additional oil as needed, until all surfaces are golden and crisp and the filling is cooked through.
05 - Transfer the fried dumplings to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Work in batches if necessary to maintain consistent cooking and crispness.
06 - Whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and chili flakes in a small bowl until combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
07 - Arrange the dumpling bites on a serving platter and present the dipping sauce in a small bowl alongside.
