Finely chop the cabbage, carrots, and mushrooms. Thinly slice the green onions. Mince the ginger and garlic.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, green onions, minced ginger, and garlic.
Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper to the vegetable mixture. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.
Lay a dumpling wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the vegetable filling into the center of the wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water, then fold the wrapper in half to create a semi-circle, pressing the edges to seal. Ensure there are no air bubbles.
Repeat the process until all the filling is used. Cover the prepared dumplings with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
Prepare a steamer with water, and bring it to a boil. Lightly oil the steamer basket to prevent the dumplings from sticking.
Place the dumplings in the steamer basket, leaving space between each dumpling.
Cover the steamer and steam the dumplings over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, or until the wrappers turn translucent.
Remove the dumplings from the steamer and serve them hot with soy sauce or your choice of dipping sauce.
