Serves: Makes 30 dumplings

Ingredients

• 300g Pork Mince
• 100g Garlic Chives, sliced
• 1 Tbsp Minced Ginger
• ½ tsp Salt
• ½ Chicken Stock Cube
• 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
• 1 Tbsp Oyster Sauce
• 1 tsp Sesame Oil
• ½ tsp White Pepper Powder
• 30 Gow Gee Wrappers

Method

1. Add all the ingredients (except the wrappers) to a large mixing bowl and stir in only one direction with chopsticks for about 3 minutes or until the filling starts resembling a sticky paste.
   
   
2. Prepare your dumplings assembly station with the following items: the pork filling, a pair of chopsticks/small spoon, a small bowl with water, the Gow Gee wrappers, and a sheet of baking paper on a chopping board.  When you're ready to assemble your dumplings, use the chopsticks/spoon to place the pork filling into the centre of the dumpling wrapper.  Dip your finger in the water and use it to slightly moisten the edge of the wrapper.  You can fold your dumplings any way you want - I've used a 4-pleat method by folding the wrapper in half by pinching at the top, then pinching and folding the left, then the right side toward the middle two times.  Pinch along the seam to seal your dumpling then place on the baking paper.  repeat with remaining wrappers!
   
   
3. To cook the dumplings, bring a large pot of water to a simmer.  Add the dumplings, then bring the water to a simmer (not a boil!) and cook until they float to the surface.  Transfer the dumplings to a serving bowl/plate and dig in with some dipping sauces of your choice (think black vinegar, sweet soy, chilli oil)!
