Making dumplings from scratch can feel like a lot of work, often leading us to give up before we even start. But with store-bought kimchi dumpling filling, making king-sized dumplings is surprisingly easy! Let’s wrap some delicious kimchi king dumplings and simmer them into a comforting hot pot. This is a perfect dish to enjoy with the whole family.
Main Ingredients- 10 store-bought kimchi king dumplings
- 1 onion
- 1 large handful of oyster mushrooms
- 3 king oyster mushrooms
- 6-7 leaves of winter greens (e.g., bok choy, napa cabbage leaves)
Seasoning Sauce- 2 Tbsp soy sauce for soup (guk-ganjang)
- 1.5 Tbsp gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- 1/2 Tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp plum extract (maesil-cheong)
- 2 cups anchovy broth (approx. 400ml)
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce for soup (guk-ganjang)
- 1.5 Tbsp gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- 1/2 Tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp plum extract (maesil-cheong)
- 2 cups anchovy broth (approx. 400ml)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the store-bought kimchi dumpling filling you’ll use for making the dumplings. (You can also buy the filling separately or mash up existing kimchi dumplings.)
Step 2
Lightly moisten the edges of a large round dumpling wrapper with water. Generously fill it with the prepared kimchi dumpling filling. Carefully seal the edges of the wrapper, then bring the two ends together and press to create a plump kimchi king dumpling. Ensure the seal is tight to prevent bursting!
Step 3
Now, let’s get started on the delicious hot pot! In a wide, shallow pot suitable for hot pot, arrange the oyster mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, sliced onion, and winter greens, cut into bite-sized pieces, around the edges. Place the freshly made kimchi king dumplings generously in the center.
Step 4
Create the flavorful seasoning sauce for the hot pot in advance. In a bowl, combine the soy sauce for soup, gochugaru, gochujang, minced garlic, and plum extract. Mix them well. Having the sauce pre-mixed makes adding it to the hot pot much easier while cooking.
Step 5
Pour 2 cups of anchovy broth over the arranged ingredients in the hot pot. Ensure the broth adequately covers the ingredients. Now, get ready to bring it to a boil over high heat.
Step 6
Once the broth comes to a rolling boil, stir in the pre-made seasoning sauce. Mix it well into the broth, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer until the dumplings and vegetables are fully cooked. Adjusting the heat to prevent the broth from reducing too quickly is important.
Step 7
When the dumplings are cooked through and the vegetables are tender, add a generous amount of sliced green onions and simmer for another moment to finish. The fresh flavor of the green onions will enhance the overall taste.
Step 8
Your steaming and hearty Kimchi King Dumpling Hot Pot is ready! Serving it directly from the pot adds to the appeal and keeps it warm for everyone. (It was so generous, the table was quite full! Enjoy your delicious meal.)
