A cosy bowl of brothy dumplings with one step and barely any effort, all steamed together on your mat.
This is one of the easiest meals to whip up: the recipe has literally ONE step. Truly. You can do this even on a night you feel you haven't got the energy to cook. Tender dumplings sit in a savoury, gingery broth, with optional noodles and veg to make it a full bowl.
You'll need our Silicone Steaming Mat for Varoma for this one. This little accessory makes such a massive difference to your Thermomix cooking: you'll use your Varoma more and actually cook whole meals on it, not just steam a couple of veggies. Our website is the only place to get it. Once you've got one, you'll wonder how you ever steamed without it.

Got the larger TM7 mat? It fits more dumplings, so use the amber amounts (everything increased by half) for a bigger batch. The method and times stay the same.
