Soup Dumpling Lasagna is a viral TikTok recipe that reimagines classic Chinese pork dumplings as an easy, individual-sized lasagna. By layering the pork filling and wrappers instead of wrapping each dumpling, it skips the most time-consuming step—while delivering all the savory, comforting flavors you love in traditional pork dumplings.

## Ingredients (serves 44)

- 1 pound ground pork
- 8 napa cabbage leaves with ribs removed*
- ½ cup chopped scallion, divided
- 1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
- 2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
- ¼ scant teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can chicken broth, divided
- 1½ teaspoons soy sauce, divided
- 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
- 4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, divided
- 2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
- 20 wonton wraps

## Steps

1. Remove ribs from the napa cabbage leaves and chop the leaves
2. Finely grate the ginger and finely chop the garlic
3. Add pork, 1/3 cup of broth, ginger, garlic, dark soy sauce, regular soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the mixing bowl
4. Mix just until all the ingredients are incorporated
5. Add 1 teaspoon of sesame oil to the remaining chicken broth and set it aside
6. Dip each wonton into a bowl of water before layering it in the ramekin, gently pressing the wontons down as you build the layers
7. Layer a 12-ounce ramekin as follows: 2 wonton wrappers, 1/4 cup of the pork filling, some napa cabbage, 3 wonton wrappers, 1/4 cup of the pork filling, some of the napa cabbage, 2 1/2 tablespoons of broth, 2 wonton wrappers, 2 1/2 tablespoons of broth, and a sprinkle of scallion
8. Repeat to assemble the remaining three ramekins
9. Place the dumplings in a large pot and add enough water to fill the ramekins halfway
10. Cover and steam, starting on high and reducing to medium-low once it comes to a boil, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 160°F
11. Cover the ramekins tightly until ready to serve to keep the top layer of wontons tender

## Good to know

### Swaps

- No napa cabbage? Thinly sliced regular cabbage works as a layering substitute.
- No dark soy sauce? Use regular soy sauce with a small splash of molasses for a similar color and depth.
- No rice wine vinegar? Substitute an equal amount of white wine vinegar.

### Storing it

Store leftovers in their ramekins or an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days; reheat covered until steaming hot. Freezing isn't recommended since the wonton layers turn soggy.

### Making it ahead

The pork filling can be mixed and the cabbage chopped up to a day ahead and kept covered in the fridge until ready to assemble and steam.
