Pan-Fried Dumplings

1: Knead the dough. Cut it into small pieces to roll out the wrapper.

2: Flatten it and roll it out with a rolling pin.

3: Use your left hand to rotate the wrapper while rolling it out with your right hand. Make sure the center of the wrapper is thicker than the edges, so it won’t break easily.

4: Add a scoop of fillings onto the center of the wrapper.

5: Fold it in half into a half moon shape.

6: Start pleating and folding from one end to another end until it’s sealed.

7: Set it aside and wrap the rest.

8: To pan fry, add a generous amount of oil to a hot, preferably non-stick pan.

9: Fry until the bottom of the dumpling is golden brown (about 3-4 min).

10: Add a dash of water, cover, and fry until cooked & crispy (for about 7-8 min).

11: Serve with chili oil & soy sauce.
