Dumpling Ingredients

Method

Dumpling Directions

  1. 1

    Make the Dumpling Dough

    In a bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and water until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a separate bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dumplings

    Roll out the rested dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out circles using a cookie cutter or a glass. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle, then fold over and pinch the edges to seal.

  4. 4

    Cook the Dumplings

    Steam the dumplings in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper for about 15 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through. Alternatively, you can pan-fry them for a crispy bottom.

  5. 5

    Make the Ponzu Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, lemon juice, rice vinegar, and a dash of mirin. Mix well to create a dipping sauce.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the dumplings hot with the ponzu sauce on the side for dipping.
