Ingredients:

  • 8 oz paneer, finely grated
  • 1/2 cup sweet corn, crushed or frozen
  • 1 tsp green chili flakes
  • 2 tbsp fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 12-15 sheets round rice paper wrappers
  • 2 cups warm water
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • 1 tsp grated ginger

Instructions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated paneer, crushed corn, chili flakes, and coriander. Fold in the garam masala, turmeric, and salt, mixing until the paneer is evenly coated.
  2. Fill a shallow tray with warm water. Dip one rice paper sheet for 5-10 seconds until pliable but not overly soft.
  3. Lay the rice paper flat on a clean surface. Place 1 tablespoon of the paneer filling in the center. Fold the bottom over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly into a small cylinder or dumpling shape.
  4. Lightly brush each dumpling with neutral oil. For air frying: arrange in a single layer at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, turning halfway through. For pan-frying: sear over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side until crisp.
  5. Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sriracha, and grated ginger to create the glaze. Apply the glaze to the hot dumplings immediately after cooking.
