How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh chicken breast
- To prepare a delicious dish, you should choose chicken breast pieces with white skin, as these are larger chickens with tastier and firmer meat; younger chickens tend to have more tender meat.
- If you buy skinless chicken breast, observe the layer of fat on the chicken. You should choose fat that is white, as this will result in tastier meat.
- Choose breast pieces with fewer striations in the meat fibers. The more striations there are, the less fat and protein there will be; moreover, these striations will make the chicken hard to absorb spices and sauces during cooking.
How to choose good potatoes
- You should choose potatoes that feel firm, heavy, intact, and have a smooth skin surface.
- Yellow potatoes will be tastier and sweeter than those that are slightly white.
- Do not choose wrinkled potatoes, those that feel soft when pressed, or have black spots, are rotten, or leaking water.
- Absolutely avoid potatoes with green skin or sprouts, as they are extremely dangerous to health.
- Potatoes should be stored in a cool, ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.
How to choose fresh carrots
- Choose carrots that are bright orange, smooth-skinned, with green tops and no bruising.
- Additionally, choose those that are still firm and of medium size.
- Avoid selecting carrots with wilted tops, cracks on the surface, or spots, and those with green tops.
How to choose delicious sweet potatoes
- Choose sweet potatoes that are heavy, firm, and not bruised. Additionally, buy those with an intact exterior, not cracked or chipped.
- Opt for medium-sized potatoes, as larger ones often have more fibers and are less tasty.
- If you see potatoes that have holes or are black, that is a sign that the sweet potatoes are spoiled.

Mix and stir-fry the filling
Add to a bowl the chicken, potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, onion, shallots, green onions, 2 teaspoons of curry powder, 1 teaspoon of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of seasoning powder, 2 teaspoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of pepper, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, and 50ml of coconut milk.
Mix the mixture well and marinate for 15 minutes for the filling to absorb the spices evenly.
Heat a pan on the stove with a little cooking oil, add the filling and stir-fry over medium heat until cooked evenly.
-
Shape the dough
Put a little filling on the dough wrapper, then fold the edges of the dough over and continue to stack the edges on top of each other. Do the same until you run out of dough and filling.
Boil 1 pot of oil, then add the dumplings to fry until the outer shell is golden and crispy.
