In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Once hot, add the finely chopped onion, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until onion becomes translucent.
Add vegan ground beef to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned.
Stir in soy sauce, grated carrot, shredded cabbage, and chopped green onions. Cook for an additional 3 minutes until vegetables are softened. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Place a dumpling wrapper on a clean work surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of filling into the center of the wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water, then fold the wrapper over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press edges together to seal tightly, ensuring no air is trapped inside.
Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In the same skillet cleaned, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Arrange dumplings in a single layer in the skillet.
Cook the dumplings for about 2 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown.
Gently pour 1/4 cup of water into the skillet and quickly cover with a lid. Allow dumplings to steam for 5-7 minutes until the water has evaporated and dumplings are cooked through.
Serve hot with dipping sauce of choice, such as soy sauce or vinegar-based sauce.
