In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while mixing with your hands or a wooden spoon until the dough comes together. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Assembly and Cooking

Shape the Dumplings
Divide the dough into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Roll each ball into a thin circle, about 3 inches in diameter. Place a tablespoon of the filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pressing the edges to seal.
