Here at Parade, we love a trending TikTok recipe. These viral dishes pop up on our feed all the time, inspiring us to get in the kitchen. Some peak quickly, then fade away, while others seem to have more staying power. Take, for example, the viral dumpling lasagna, a recipe that's been creating a lot of buzz on social media and seems to be sticking around. And it's easy to see why. Dumplings are already a perfect bite, but they do require a lot of work if you're making them at home. Filling and folding each one takes skill, patience and time. Dumpling lasagna takes the essential components of the iconic food (filling, wrapper, sauce), and layers everything in a dish, a la lasagna.This deconstructed approach means that there's no wrestling with wrappers or fretting if your dumplings are overfilled or underfilled. All you have to do is mix, stack, steam and dig in. This streamlined method is great when you want the comforting, satisfying dumpling experience with much less effort.As with most viral recipes, there are many versions of dumpling lasagna out there, as I quickly learned when I hopped online to find one to try in my kitchen. After some searching, I went with a recipe shared by father-and-son Mike and Nathan of @saltNpiipa, which was inspired by creator Nicole Modic of @kalejunkie. Their dish looked delicious, and their enthusiasm and excitement were inspiring.The dish came together quickly and didn't require much hands-on time, which made it the perfect thing to make for a work-from-home lunch on a particularly busy day. Keep reading for my full review, plus learn how to make this fan-favorite dish at home.Related: 33 Creative Dumpling Recipes To Make at Home??

What Are People Saying About the Viral Dumpling Lasagna?
Courtesy Jessica Wrubel
The internet is almost fully on board on this one (I say almost because there are always the naysayers). Comment sections are packed with enthusiasm for the dumpling lasagna, including people calling it “genius,” “incredible” and "insanely delicious." There are also folks hopping in with their suggestions, like using Italian sausage, ricotta, mozzarella and tomato sauce for a sort of cross-cultural spin. Hmm.Many commenters also noted that this layering method feels like a much easier workaround for anyone intimidated by traditional dumpling folding (true) or for those who grew up watching someone else make them flawlessly and don’t have the time (or patience) to do the same.

Making this dish is pretty straightforward. Start by mixing all of the filling ingredients in a bowl until well combined. (Gloves are handy for this process.)

The pork mixture is then layered with wonton wrappers inside a ramekin, lasagna-style. The TikTok recipe recommends a 3½-inch ramekin, though a larger one works just fine if that’s what you have (as in my case).

Once assembled, pour a small amount of water on the top wonton wrapper, then add to a small pot with a few inches of simmering water in the bottom. Cover the pot and steam the mini lasagna until the pork is cooked through, which takes 20 to 30 minutes. Once cooked, finish the dish with soy sauce, chili oil and more green onions.

Dumpling Lasagna: My Honest Thoughts
Courtesy of Jessica Wrubel
This article took me twice as long to write up because I kept sneaking bites of this lasagna and going “wow!” until I got to the bottom of my ramekin. I absolutely loved this; the TikTokers are onto something here for sure.
The dumpling lasagna tastes exactly like a juicy little dumpling but with a softer, layered texture that’s incredibly satisfying. Best of all, it’s all yours, so no fighting with the table over the last dumpling. The proportions of dumpling wrapper, filling and sauce made for the perfect umami-laced bite. The little pop of scallions and lingering heat from the chili crisp on top was perfection. It was the best lunch I had all week.

Best of all, with this one, it’s truly a set-it-and-forget-it meal that feels far more impressive than the effort required. TikTok owns me once again.Related: I Tried Ina Garten’s Rugelach—and Honestly, They’re Perfect
4 Tips for Making Dumpling Lasagna
Courtesy of Jessica Wrubel
Using gloves when you’re mixing ground meat is my preferred move. It keeps things sanitary and prevents you from getting meat goo under your fingernails.
2. Use a ramekin or go rogue
When layering this one up, if you don’t have a ramekin, you can use a small, individual-size baking dish or pot or even a mug–it doesn't need to be fancy.
I bought a whole head of cabbage for this dish, but if you’re short on time, snag a bag of pre-shredded cabbage to make this even quicker. Ditto for the ginger and garlic, which I keep in cubes in my freezer. It worked beautifully.
4. Grab a thermometer
I was a little nervous about the meat cooking all the way through, so I used a thermometer about 20 minutes in to give me an idea of how much longer it had to go.
