How to prepare the filling for zucchini dumplings

Making dumplings with zucchini is a common practice. It is relatively simple to make dumplings with zucchini, and the fillings are also richer. You can make dumplings with vegetarian fillings or meat fillings. If you make dumplings with meat fillings, you can put some pork belly in them, which will make them taste more fragrant. If you make dumplings with vegetarian fillings, you need to put eggs and some dried shrimps in them, which will also taste very delicious. First, wash the zucchini, and then shred it with a grater.

How to prepare the filling for zucchini dumplings

1. Peel the zucchini and grate it (use a grater. If you don’t know how to do it, don’t do it.) 2. Soak the vermicelli in boiling water until soft and chop it into pieces. 3. Scramble a few eggs (for vegetarians, the number of eggs to scramble depends on personal preference). Scramble them until they are a little overcooked to make them more fragrant. 4. You can refer to the above and add some dried shrimps. They should be chopped finely, otherwise they will be unpalatable. 5. Add appropriate amount of salt, steamed fish soy sauce and sesame oil and mix the dumpling filling evenly.
