In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Prepare a clean surface to assemble the dumplings. Lay out a dumpling wrapper and place about 1 teaspoon of the beef mixture in the center. Do not overfill.
Moisten the edges of the dumpling wrapper lightly with water using your finger or a small brush. Fold the wrapper in half to form a half-moon shape, pressing the edges together to seal. Optionally, pleat the edges for decoration.
Repeat with the remaining beef mixture and wrappers until all the dumplings are assembled.
Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Arrange the dumplings in a single layer in the pan, flat side down, and cook without moving for about 2–3 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown.
Once browned, pour 1/4 cup of water into the pan and cover with a lid immediately. Steam the dumplings for 5–7 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through and the wrappers are tender.
Remove the lid and allow any remaining water to evaporate. Cook for an additional 1–2 minutes to re-crisp the bottoms.
Transfer the dumplings to a serving plate and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
