Description

Directions

• Combine all the ingredients together into one bowl and mix until the meat has been coated in the sauce.
• To wrap the dumplings, fill the center with a teaspoon of filling (or less if you like a more chewy crispy dumpling).
• Use a bit of water along the edges as the glue. Fold the dough over and press on the seams to put it together.
• Add oil to a non-stick pan and adjust the heat to medium low.
• Once the oil is hot, add a few dumplings into the pan, careful not to overcrowd it.
• Brown them lightly on each side for about 1 minute a side
• Add 1/4 cup of water into the pan and put a lid on it and steam it for approximately 2-4 mins. Make sure the bottom of the pan is lightly covered with water or the dumplings will burn.  (This will steam the dumplings to soften up the skin. )
• Remove the lid and let the water evaporate. At this point the dumplings will look waterlogged and gross. Thats normal 🙂
• Once the water evaporates, continue to brown and crisp up the dumplings for about 5 mins
• Remove from the pan when the dumplings are crispy.
• Enjoy! 🙂
