Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 cups finely chopped Napa cabbage
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 24 round dumpling wrappers
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/2 cup water, for steaming
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 1 pound of ground pork, 2 cups of finely chopped Napa cabbage, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of minced fresh ginger, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1/4 cup of chopped green onions, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Place a small spoonful of the pork mixture in the center of a dumpling wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold the dumpling in half, and press the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and pork mixture.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the dumplings in the skillet in a single layer and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully add 1/2 cup of water to the skillet and cover with a lid. Steam the dumplings for 5-6 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.
- Remove the lid and continue to cook the dumplings until the bottoms are crispy again, about 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer the dumplings to a serving plate and repeat the cooking process with the remaining dumplings, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the fried pork dumplings hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
