1 cup finely diced firm tofu
1 cup finely chopped chives
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon Asian chili sauce
1 egg white, beaten
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 package wonton skins
Combine tofu, chives, sugar, chili sauce, all but 1 teaspoon of the egg white, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
Place 2 teaspoons of filling onto a wonton skin. Use your finger to moisten the edge of the wonton skin lightly with a bit of the remaining egg white. Fold 2 opposite corners of the skin together to form a triangle shape. Seal edges together by pinching tightly with your fingers. Repeat with remaining filling and wonton wrappers, making as many triangle-shaped dumplings as filling allows. Place them on a plate dusted with cornstarch.
Bring 3 quarts water to a rapid boil. Boil the dumplings in batches. Serve with a dumpling sauce.
