Ingredients:
500 grams (1.1 lb) wheat flour
250 grams (0.55 lb) minced pork
5 grams (5/6 tsp) salt
5 grams (1 tsp) sugar
5 grams (1 1/4 tsp) MSG
10 grams (1 1/2 tsp) soy sauce
15 grams (1 tbsp) cooking wine
5 grams (1/6 oz) finely cut scallions
5 grams (1/6 oz) chopped ginger
150 grams (12 tbsp) cooking oil

Directions:

1. Mix the minced pork well with the salt, sugar, MSG, soy sauce, cooking wine, scallions and ginger. Add 50 g (3 tbsp) of water and stir in one direction till you feel the sense of elasticity.

2. Mix the flour with 200 g (2/5 cup) of boiling water, make the dough into long and round shape and reduce to 40 pieces. Press and roll into wrappings each about 6 centimeters (2.4 inches) in diameter. Put in the filling, fold and wrap into crescent shapes.

3. Put the cooking oil into the frying pan, heat and when the oil is about 135-200ºC (275-390ºF), place the raw dumplings in. Heat for one minute, sprinkle 100 g (6 tbsp) of water and put on the pan cover. Use strong fire to heat five minutes. When the water disappears, the dumplings are ready. (It may take several repetitions to cook all the 40 dumplings because of the size of the pan.)

Features: Beautiful to look at and delicious to eat.

Taste: Salty and tasty.
