Dumpling Dumpling~

I wrapped some dumpling for Joy's farewell the other day... Hmph... Long time never wrap dumpling liao.. can't really wrap it nicely... T____T. Inside are mince pork + coriander + onion + seasoning.. It's Nepal's dumpling style.. "MoMo" ^__^.



Ready to steam...

Made some sauce as well to eat with the dumpling. Freshly blend tomato + dried chili + coriander.

Didn't manage to take any picture for the cooked dumpling.. was running out of time to work..

Will taste better if I used the fatter mince pork ... But nvm la.. healthier eating LOL

Joy is leaving for backpacking.. Wish u all the best Joy~ We are going to miss u! Hugs~

Momos' Recipe:

MOMOS

INGREDIENTS
1. Minced pork
2. Ginger paste
3. Soy sauce
4. Salt to taste
5. Coriander leaves roughly chopped
6. Onions finely chopped
7. Oil
8. Water
9. Round dumpling wrappers
10. Dried red chillies
11. Tomatoes
12. Coriander

Method

Mix the first seven mentioned ingredients together. Once the mixture is well combined spoon small amount of the mixture on the dumpling wrapper and seal the wrapper. Dampen the edges of the wrappers with water so that it seals easily. Steam the momos for twenty minutes and serve hot.

Put dried chillies and tomatoes in a bowl of water and microwave for approximately ten minutes. Then throw the water out, peel the tomatoes and add coriander and salt and blend till a smooth mixture.

Leave the dumpling wrappers out overnight!

Leftover momos taste really good if you microwave them for two minutes and just pan fry the bottoms.

Enjoy ! ^___^

Normal price per head is AUD60 but they have special price on Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday which is AUD43 per head. Very worth it I would say. Their foods were very well-presented and it has a true fusion of Japanese and European /Asian styles and flavors.

Patato cream soup with oyster tempura & tofu

Sashimi
Assorted today's fresh market sashimi

Pasta dish
Spice prawn, mung bean noodle and yogurt sauce

Main course
Braised pork belly rolled with savoy cabbage, eggplant ragu & gochujang miso sauce

Dessert
Pannacotta with cumquat, bloog orange & pink grapefruit granita

My favorite dish I will say is the dessert. It taste really special!!!
I like the soup as well especially the fried oyster on top. It's very very fresh and my tongue got slightly burn by the juicy oyster. LOL
The sashimi plate are really really fresh too... Ou.. I;m drooling again now XD~~. Haha..ha..
The main did come with the white rice, which is a very good combination with the fatty pork wrapped in the cabbage T__T. Thanks god that they serve rice otherwise I don't think we were full enough especially the boys. Anyway AUD42 for such a great dinner I am satisfied and HAPPY!
