- Add some lard (or not) and knead the flour into a dough until smooth. If you are using cooking oil, add the oil in the middle of your kneading process. Set the dough aside.
- Peel fresh shrimp and devein. Finely mince the shrimp and add cooking wine, soy sauce, pepper powder and chopped ginger firstly. Stir the filling in one direction until you get a paste like texture. Set aside to marinate for around 10 minutes.
- Get the dough out and knead around another 4~5 minutes to punch the air out and then roll the dough into a cylinder around 1 inch and then cut it into small sections around 1 inch diameter.
- Roll the small sections out to thin round wrappers one by one.
- Add chopped spring onions in the shrimp meat and mix well. Wrap the dumplings one by one.
