1 large knob ginger, thinly sliced
2 cups white vinegar
60ml (1/4 cup) malt vinegar
2 tbs light soy sauce
200g ling fillets, roughly chopped
250g banana prawns, peeled, de-veined, finely chopped
5 finely chopped spring onions, finely chopped

1½ tbs light soy sauce
2 tsp caster sugar

METHOD
Pickled Ginger:
1. Place ginger in a small bowl. Sprinkle with a little salt to draw out moisture and set aside for 15 minutes.
2. Place vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to the boil.
3. Add ginger, then reduce heat and simmer until reduced by a third or a thick syrup forms.
Chilli Vinegar Sauce:
Place all ingredients in a small bowl and stir to combine.
Dumplings:
1. Place fish in a food processor and process until a fine paste forms.
2. Transfer to a large bowl with remaining ingredients. Using your hands, stir well to combine.
3. To assemble dumplings, place a teaspoon of filling in centre of each wrapper, then using your fingers, lightly wet wrapper edges with cold water. Fold dumpling in half to create a triangular shape. Working from the centre, use fingers to push air bubbles out of dumplings. Press edges together to seal and place on a tray. Repeat with remaining wrappers and mixture.
4. Cook dumplings, in small batches, in a large saucepan of boiling water for 3 minutes or until cooked. Drain.
5. Garnish dumplings with pickled ginger, micro herbs and spring onions. Serve with dipping sauce.
