INGREDIENTS:

CORN CHILLI CHEESE DUMPLINGS:

  • 1 cup boiled corn
  • Half cup reduced-fat cream cheese
  • 2 chopped jalapeños
  • Quarter tsp black pepper
  • 1 pinch sugar
  • 2 stalks chopped green onions
  • Quarter tsp salt
  • 4 sheets samosa patti

SPICY MAYO:

  • One tbsp sriracha
  • 3 tbsp light mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp rice wine vinegar
  • Quarter tsp salt

GARNISHING:

  • One tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 1 tbsp chopped green onions
  • One tsp black sesame seeds

INGREDIENT NOTES:

BOILED CORN:

  • It gives sweetness and a juicy bite to the filling. Corn includes a pleasant contrast with creamy cheese as well. You may use frozen corn as per your preference.

REDUCED-FAT CREAM CHEESE:

  • This cream cheese makes the filling creamy and holds the vegetables with corn. You may use light cream cheese as an alternative.

SAMOSA PATTI:

  • It makes the thin and crispy outer layer around the filling. This patti becomes golden and crunchy when we air fry. You may use spring roll wrappers as another choice.

RICE WINE VINEGAR:

  • This vinegar gives acidity and cuts the richness of mayonnaise. It makes the sauce taste fresher and delicious. Include apple cider vinegar if you are not using rice wine vinegar.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. First, include the boiled and drained corn in the bowl.
  2. Then mix the cream cheese, chopped green onions, salt, chopped jalapeños, a pinch of sugar, and black pepper thoroughly with the corn.
  3. Cut the samosa patti sheet into 3 parts and put one on a clean surface.
  4. Add a small spoonful of corn and cheese filling and brush the edges with a little water.
  5. Seal the wrapper around the filling, then make dumplings of the remaining ingredients.
  6. Warm the air fryer to 200°C and put a single layer of filled dumplings in the air fryer basket.
  7. Air fry the dumplings for 12 minutes, turning halfway to cook till the wrappers become golden brown.
  8. Whisk mayonnaise, sriracha, rice wine vinegar, and salt in the bowl to make the creamy mayo.
  9. Arrange the crispy dumplings on the platter and drizzle spicy mayo on top.
  10. Drizzle sweet chili sauce lightly, then sprinkle chopped green onions.
  11. Lastly, sprinkle black sesame seeds on the dumplings and serve them.
