Egg Skirt Dumplings (breakfast dumpling hack)

We def don’t need eggs to make dumplings a breakfast food but sometimes it’s fun this way. I used a 10-in nonstick skillet when making these.

For 1 batch:

  • 1 egg
  • scallion greens
  • splash of shaoxing wine
  • salt
  • 1 tsp of water

To make:

  • Heat up oil over medium heat
  • Cook dumplings until bottoms are golden brown
  • Add in 1/2 cup water and steam cook for 8-10 mins until skin is translucent
  • Remove lid and cook until water evaporates
  • Turn heat to medium low and add in the egg from one corner of the pan, swirling the pan so it spreads throughout (I add ~80% of the mixture first and then fill in any remaining gaps with the rest)
  • Once egg is cooked through, place a plan on top and flip
