Dumpling Ingredients
Method
Dumpling Directions
- 1
Prepare the Dough
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the boiling water while stirring with a fork until the mixture forms a shaggy dough.
- 2
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, mix together the ground pork, chopped green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and pepper until well combined.
- 4
Roll the Dough
After resting, divide the dough into small pieces (about the size of a golf ball). Roll each piece into a thin circle, approximately 3 inches in diameter.
- 5
Fill the Dumplings
Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal securely.
- 6
Prepare for Steaming
Fill a steamer pot with water, ensuring the water does not touch the dumplings. Bring the water to a boil.
- 7
Steam the Dumplings
Place dumplings in the steamer basket, ensuring they are not touching each other. Cover and steam for about 15 minutes or until the filling is cooked through.
- 8
Serve
Carefully remove the dumplings from the steamer and serve hot with soy sauce or your choice of dipping sauce.
