Follow The Directions

01

Step

Infuse your kitchen with the alluring aroma of garlic oil: Heat vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat; add minced garlic. Slowly cook garlic until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.

02

Step

Craft an aromatic paste: Crush peppercorns using a mortar and pestle until powdery. Add peeled garlic and a pinch of salt; crush into a paste. Mix cilantro stems into the paste.

03

Step

Unleash the symphony of flavors: Mix paste, pork, shrimp, water chestnuts, dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon white sugar, fish sauce, tapioca starch, light soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl. Spoon 1 to 2 teaspoons pork-shrimp mixture into the center of each wonton wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the filling, sealing the edges together and creating a purse-like pouch.

04

Step

Steam to perfection: Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add wontons, cover, and steam until the filling is cooked through, approximately 10 minutes, ensuring a succulent and tender filling.

05

Step

Prepare the vibrant dipping sauce: Whisk rice vinegar, light soy sauce, 1 tablespoon white sugar, scallions, and bird's eye chile together in a bowl until dipping sauce is well mixed.

06

Step

Present the masterpiece: Serve Khanom Jeeb with a delicate drizzle of garlic oil and the tantalizing dipping sauce on the side. Allow the flavors to transport you to the heart of Thailand.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of ground white pepper to the pork-shrimp mixture.
Ensure the wonton wrappers are fresh to prevent them from tearing during folding. If they are dry, lightly dampen the edges with water before sealing.
Adjust the amount of bird's eye chile in the dipping sauce according to your spice preference.
