What is the Viral Soup Dumpling Lasagna?
It’s basically layered soup dumpling ingredients, like the way a lasagna is layered. Instead of wrapping each individual soup dumpling with filling and wrapper, this version is layered. It’s a brilliant idea because it’s so quick, simple and equally satisfying. It’s hard to not want to do a little less work, but still enjoy homemade dumpling flavors.

Enjoy the Brothy Soup Flavors
The best part about this layered soup dumpling recipe is that there’s more broth sitting at the bottom of the dishes. Don’t waste it. Just use your spoon when scooping through the meat and wrapper layers. Then spoon some of the delicious broth on spoon. Each bite is exactly like what you would taste in a soup dumpling.
Round Dumpling Wrappers or Square Wonton Wrappers?
Both will work! They’re basically made from the same ingredients and they only differ with the shapes. The most important factor in this recipe is choosing a vessel that can fit the wonton or dumpling wrappers.
- LARGER DISHES: if you want to use a larger baking dish, like an 8×8 square then it’s totally possible. Just layer the wrappers side by side above the meat to create one large layer of wrappers.
- If you’re using larger dishes, just know that you’ll have a thinner layer of meat. And you’ll need to use more wrappers.
