Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Ground pork
- 100 grams Green cabbage
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 1 unit Egg white
- 24 units Dumpling wrappers
- Vegetable oil spray
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
Finely chop the green cabbage and lightly salt it. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to release excess moisture, then squeeze out the water.
Mince the garlic and ginger. Thinly slice the green onions.
In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and egg white. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.
Place about one tablespoon of filling in the center of a dumpling wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water, fold it over to form a half-moon shape, and press the edges tightly to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with vegetable oil spray.
Arrange dumplings in the skillet, making sure they don't touch.
Cook the dumplings for about 2 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Add 0.25 cup of water to the skillet and quickly cover with a lid to steam the dumplings.
Let them steam for another 5 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through and the water is evaporated.
Remove the lid and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms.
Serve hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
