EASY PORK DUMPLINGS RECIPES

Steps:

• MAKE THE DUMPLINGS Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a fork, stir together sausage, scallions, cilantro, egg, soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil in a large bowl. Fill a small bowl with water. Lay 3 wonton wrappers on a work surface. Place 1 rounded teaspoon of sausage mixture in the center of each wrapper. Dip a finger in water and rub around the edge of each wrapper. Fold 1 side of wrapper over filling. Make 3 pleats along seam and pinch to seal. Transfer assembled dumplings to prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining sausage mixture and wrappers.Add water to a medium nonstick skillet until bottom is just covered; bring to a simmer over medium-high. Add as many dumplings, flat side down, as will comfortably fit. Cover and steam until wrappers are translucent, about 3 minutes.Pour off any water remaining in skillet. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (if dumplings are sticking, shake skillet gently or loosen dumplings with a rubber spatula). Cook, undisturbed, until bottoms are golden and crispy, about 1 minute. Transfer dumplings to a paper towel– lined plate. Wipe skillet clean and repeat with water, remaining dumplings, and vegetable oil.

Steps:

• Combine flour, salt, and water in a bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon until dough comes together in a sticky ball. Sprinkle in more flour and knead by hand, adding more flour as needed, until soft and supple. Wrap in plastic and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Combine ground pork, garlic, ginger, green onions, and chives in bowl. Season with salt, pepper, gochugaru, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix together using two forks just until combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Mix vinegar, soy sauce, and gochugaru into the chicken broth and set aside.
• Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll one piece into a rope about the thickness of your thumb. Using a rolling pin, flatten into a long, thin band about 3 inches wide, flouring only as needed. Dust the top with flour and flip over. Dip your fingers in some water and lightly brush the surface until slightly sticky.
• Use moistened fingers to line about 1/4 of the pork filling across the dough. Fold dough over the whole length, pressing it down over the meat. Trim off excess dough if desired. Dust a little more flour on top and roll over so seam side is on the bottom. Divide into 16 pieces using the edge of your hand, then a bench scraper to cut. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Cook dumplings in batches, seam-side up, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Pour in a portion of the broth and bring to a boil. Cover and continue to boil until pork is no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Pour dumplings with broth into serving bowls.
