Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vegetable oil
1 cup ground pork
1/4 cup chopped green onions
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp grated ginger
1 tsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup water for sealing dumplings
Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix flour, warm water, salt, and vegetable oil. Knead until the dough becomes smooth. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
In a separate bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Mix well.
Divide the dough into small portions. Roll each portion into a thin circle.
Place a spoonful of the pork mixture onto the center of each dough circle. Fold the edges towards the center, creating pleats along the way. Pinch the edges to seal the dumplings.
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Place the dumplings in the pan and fry until the bottom becomes golden brown.
Pour water into the pan, covering one-third of the dumplings. Cover with a lid and let the dumplings steam for 5-7 minutes or until cooked through.
Remove the lid and let the dumplings fry until the water evaporates and the bottom becomes crispy again.
Serve hot and enjoy your flavorful open flower dumplings.
