In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green onion, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Lay out a gluten-free dumpling wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Place about one teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water. Fold the wrapper in half, encasing the filling, and press the edges firmly to seal, creating a half-moon shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Carefully arrange the dumplings in the skillet in a single layer, making sure they do not touch.
Fry the dumplings for about 2 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Pour in 1/2 cup of water into the skillet and immediately cover with a tight-fitting lid. This will steam the dumplings.
Reduce heat to medium and let the dumplings cook for another 5-6 minutes or until the pork is cooked through and the wrappers become translucent.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow any remaining water to evaporate and to crisp up the bottoms again.
Transfer the dumplings to a serving plate and serve hot with your favorite gluten-free dipping sauce.
