Dough Ingredients

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and vegetable oil while mixing with your hands or a wooden spoon until the dough begins to come together.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a separate bowl, mix together the ground pork, chopped scallions, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and salt. Ensure all ingredients are well combined.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Fill the Dumplings

    Once the dough has rested, divide it into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Roll each ball out into a thin circle. Place about a tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle.

  2. 5

    Seal the Dumplings

    Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges together to seal tightly, ensuring there are no air pockets.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Frying Method

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the dumplings and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Serve hot with dipping sauce.

  2. 7

    Steaming Method

    Place dumplings in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper. Steam over boiling water for about 10-12 minutes until cooked through. Serve hot with dipping sauce.
