French Onion Soup Dumplings

Prep Time 1 hour
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cups sliced onions
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 10 sage leaves
  • 1 tbsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 24 dumpling wrappers
  • 1 egg whisked
  • 1 cup gruyere cheese shredded
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • chives chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a saute pan. Saute onions in butter until glossy and translucent, but still firm.
  • Add beef broth, sage leaves, pepper, and salt. Simmer covered on low to medium heat for at least 40 minutes, until all liquid has evaporated. Remove caramelized onions from heat.
  • Whisk one egg in a bowl. Set aside.
  • To prepare the dumplings, place 1 tsp of onions and 1 tsp of shredded gruyere cheese in the center of the dumpling wrapper. Use your finger to brush egg along the edges of the wrapper. Fold wrapper in half, pinch "z" shapes along the top of the dumpling and press down the edges for 5 seconds.
  • Heat a nonstick pot with vegetable oil. Sear dumplings on high heat until the bottoms become golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add in water and cover pot with lid. Cook for 3-5 minute until liquid is complete drained.
  • Remove dumplings from pot and garnish with chopped chives and additional cheese.

Notes

Dumpling wrappers might also be called "jiaozi" or "gyoza" wrappers at the Asian grocery store.
Make sure dumpling wrappers are thawed, if frozen, before preparing dumplings.
