Thanks to 100 people ♡
In our household, we make dumplings almost every week, and the favorite is these refreshing shrimp and chive dumplings. The meat is just a binder.
The origin of this recipe
I prefer dumplings with lots of vegetables and shrimp over those with lots of ground meat. I used to make them randomly and sometimes ended up disappointed, so I decided to create a proper recipe.

Steps

1

For the shrimp: Rub with cornstarch (not listed in ingredients), then rinse well with water and pat dry with a paper towel. Tear into 2-4 pieces with your fingers.
2

For the chives and cabbage: Finely chop. They don't need to be too fine. Do not squeeze out the moisture.
3

For the ground pork: In a bowl, mix with the ● ingredients until sticky. This is key.
4

Finish the filling: Combine the shrimp from step 1, the vegetables from step 2, and sesame oil with the pork from step 3 to complete the filling.
5

Wrap and cook: Heat sesame oil in a frying pan over medium heat, arrange the dumplings, and lightly brown them.
6

Add 1/2 cup of water, cover immediately, and steam for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn them; medium-high heat is recommended.
7

Once the water has evaporated, drizzle sesame oil (not listed in ingredients) with a spoon, remove the lid, and cook until the skins are crispy and nicely browned.
8

Here's the filling.
The shrimp and chives are held together by the meat.
9

Our dumpling dipping sauce: Chinese black vinegar (Zhenjiang vinegar) 3: soy sauce 2: chili oil with bits 1. It's spicy.
