  • 1 cup cabbage finely chopped
  • ½ cup scallions finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

For the Dumplings

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground meat, cabbage, scallions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. To assemble the dumplings, place a wrapper on a clean surface and add about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper.
  3. Dip your finger in water and run it around the edge of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half and press the edges together to seal the dumpling.
  4. Repeat this process until all the filling is used up.

To Cook

  1. Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, add the dumplings, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
  2. Cook the dumplings for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until they start to brown, then add about 1/4 cup of water to the pan, cover with a lid and steam for another 2-3 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through.
  3. Remove from heat and serve with the dipping sauce.

For the Sauce

  1. You can adjust any or all of these ingredients to suit your taste.  Simply whisk the ingredients together, dip the dumplings in the sauce and enjoy.
