Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped scallions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger root
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 package of wonton wrappers (about 50 wrappers)
  • 1/4 cup water

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, scallions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Lay out a few wonton wrappers on a clean, dry surface. Place a teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of each wrapper. Wet your finger with the water and moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper.
  3. Fold the wonton wrapper in half to create a triangle shape. Press down the edges to seal the filling in the wrapper. Place on a plate or baking sheet and repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  4. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the dumplings. Boil for 4-5 minutes or until the dumplings are cooked through.
  5. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
