Author Notes:
Delicious pork and shrimp dumplings are served with noodles and bok choy in a Szechuan-style, spicy sauce. - Cindy Lee Roberts
Food52 Review: Dumplings and noodles mingling together are such a delight, though this refreshing, spicy sauce -- sort of a loose cilantro and green onion pesto -- would be great on noodles alone, or dumplings alone, or pretty much anything. —Kristen Miglore

-
1
pound ground pork
-
1/2
pound shrimp, headed and peeled, then roughly chopped
-
5
spring onions, finely chopped

1/2 inch

-
1/4

-
1
teaspoon sesame oil

teaspoon Chinese cooking wine

packet dumpling wrappers
-

Directions
Spicy Sauce
- Mix all the sauce ingredients in a medium bowl.
Dumplings, Noodles and Bok Choy
- Mix the pork, shrimp, spring onions, ginger, salt, pepper, sesame oil, and wine in a medium bowl.
- Place about a tablespoon of the dumpling mixture on each wrapper, seal and shape. This makes about 50 dumplings. Freeze the ones you don't use, then you can make this again!
- Boil a couple of quarts of water in a large pot, throw in the noodles, and cook for two minutes (Note: You may need to adapt the boiling timing, depending on what type of noodles you use -- be sure to consult the suggested time on the package). Now, add about 12 dumplings and continue boiling gently until the dumplings are cooked (about 8 minutes). You can tell by looking at them!
- Throw in the bok choy, cook for 30 seconds more, then turn off the heat. Drain the noodles, dumplings and bok choy and serve immediately in capacious noodle bowls.
- Spoon the spicy sauce over the top, mix it all up, garnish with a little cilantro, and serve!
