Most definitely late, but I did make these over the weekend. These are pork and wombok dumplings. The worst part of these is that they take so much time to prepare, but only 5 seconds to eat. However, I don’t make these often, and they’re worth it. I make extras and freeze them for quick (lazy) meals.

Happy belated Lunar New Year to those who celebrate!

What’s your favourite dipping sauce?? When I don’t have any sichuan chili oil left, I just use a bit of light soy sauce, and either sesame oil or sichuan chili oil. About 1:2 ratio.

    I don’t know what pork dumplings are, but have an upvote! Not sure why the other guy downvoted you.

    Maybe he didn’t want sticky dango all over his pork dumplings…

      I don’t know about downvotes, I think people use them for different reasons whether they downvote for disliking something or they just want to see less of it. I also think maybe some people accidentally vote on things when they’re scrolling on their phone, so I don’t think too much of it. :) I’m just here to share food photos and have discussions about food! The imagery of sticky dango on dumplings, though, LOL. Thank you!

      Dumplings pretty much comprises of a thin wrapper on the outside and meat and/or vegetable filling on the inside. Pork is the traditional filling, but you can find chicken, prawns, chives, cabbage. I don’t see beef very often.

      You can go to a supermarket frozen aisle and find them there, too! Give it a try. :)

        It is way too easy to accidentally downvote on a phone. I wish the up/down buttons weren’t exactly where my thumb hits when I scroll right-handed.

          I know, right! I think I’ve managed to catch undo all of my accidental downvotes before I keep scrolling. For those I didn’t mean to downvotes and I missed undoing them, I’m sorry!

          And now you’ve got a few suggestions from different people on the kinds of dipping sauces to use. Maybe start with just a bit of soy sauce to start, and then build from there if/when you grow your dumpling addiction. 😂

      They are known as gyouza in Japanese, jiaozi in Mandarin, and sometimes pot stickers in English.
