We got some ground pork at the grocery store and were trying to see what to do with it. This was the best Idea Ever! Although it took quite a while, they were absolutely delicious. Steamed better than boiled and gloriously yummy.
Dough:
250 ml of water
2 cups flour
Mix together and let rest (covered with plastic wrap) while you work on the filling.
Ingredients:
3 lb ground pork
2 onions, finely chopped
3 eggs - lightly beaten
3-4 bunches of green onions or scallions
6-8 garlic cloves
6 tbsp soy sauce
6 tsp grated ginger

1/3-1/2 cup Soy Sauce
3 tbsp Mirin
3 tbsp Sake
toasted sesame oil (little bit)
1/2 tbsp sugar
finely grated ginger to taste
finely grated garlic to taste
lemon to taste (opitonal)
Directions:
1. Make the dough, let sit while you make the filling
2. In a large bowl combine pork egg, scallions, finely chopped onions, garlic, soy sauce, ginger, fish sauce and sesame oil.
3. Roll out your dumpling dough pretty thin, use a round cutter to make uniform circles

7. Boil water and steam dumplings on a steam tray for 7 minutes fresh or 12 minutes for frozen dumplings.
