Pork Dumplings

Recipe from Hello Fresh Pork DIY Dumplings

Ingredients:
8 oz. ground pork
1 thumb ginger, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 scallions
soy sauce
salt & pepper
Wonton wrappers
1 T. sugar

Instructions:
Filling Dumplings:
Combine Pork, ginger, garlic, scallion whites and 1 t. soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
Fill a small bowl with water and keep within reach.
Place wonton wrappers on dry, clean surface.
Place 1 t. filling in center of wrapper.
Dip fingers in water, use them to moisten 2 adjacent edges of wrapper.
Fold diagonally so dry edges meet wet edges, forming a triangle.
Press edges with fingers to seal.
Set aside under a damp paper towel and repear until all filling is used.

Frying Dumplings:
Heat a thin layer of oil in large pan over medium high heat (recipe says 2 T. but I found we needed much more). Add as many dumplings as you can fit without crowding. Fry until crisp, about 1 minute per side. Remove pan and repeat with remainder, Return all dumplings to pan. Reduce heat to low and pour 1/4 cup water. Cover and let steam until wrappers are translucent, 4-6 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to med-high, and let water evaporate, about 2 minutes.

Finish and serve:
While dumplings cook, make dipping sauce. Whist remaining 2 T soy sauce, 1 T. sugar and scallion greens into a small bowl until sugar dissolves. Divide dumplings between plates and serve with sauce for dipping.
