Tongs
Serving plates
Bowls
Method:
In a food processor, add the duck meat including half of the skin, onion, ginger, garlic, five spice, soy and hoisin. Pulse 5-6 times in the food processor until a rough paste forms. Check seasoning.
Place wonton wrappers on a clean surface and add a heaped teaspoon of the meat mixture in the centre. Fold the wonton wrapper over to form a triangle and seal the parcel. It should resemble a half moon. Repeat the process. Line a baking tray with baking paper and arrange the wontons on the paper. Cover with a damp tea towel and refrigerate until ready to steam.
For the chilli sauce, place the chilli oil, tomatoes, ginger, garlic and vinegar into a medium pot. Turn on to a low heat and warm through for 5-8 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the sesame oil.
Place a medium to large steamer basket, lined with baking paper over a pot of simmering water and in one single layer arrange the dumplings. Steam for 4-5 minutes.
Divide the chilli oil sauce into 4 shallow bowls and then top with the dumplings. Garnish with the remaining very finely sliced spring onions and sprinkle of fried shallots.
