Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chili oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of flour with 1/2 cup of water to form a dough. Knead the dough for 5 minutes, then cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
- In another bowl, combine 1 pound of ground pork, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to 1/8 inch thickness. Use a round cutter to cut out circles of dough.
- Place a small spoonful of the pork mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, creating a half-moon shape.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
- In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons of chili oil, and 1 teaspoon of sugar to make the spicy dipping sauce.
- Serve the dumplings hot with the spicy dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy!
