Instructions:

1. Place ingredients from flour mix packet into a mixer or food processor.
   
2. Add water and oil together into mix.

   Tip: Place cling wrap or a dampened tea towel over your dough and skins while wrapping to prevent them from drying out.

Cooking Tip: How do I get my dumplings to hold together?

No additional water is necessary, the trick is to ensure the edges of your pastry are "clean" (i.e. free from any filling). If there is filling in the way the pastry will not stick together, gently wipe it off, then firmly pinch together the edges of the pastry, making sure it is completely sealed.

What you need:

• 200g pork mince
• 200g Chinese cabbage or kale, finely shredded

Pan-Fry Dumplings

Instructions:

1. Pre-heat fry pan with a little oil. When pan is hot, turn down the heat and place dumplings evenly around the fry pan.
2. Carefully pour water into the pan, just enough to cover the base of the pan.
3. Place the lid on a cook for 9 minutes.
4. After 9 minutes, your dumplings should be ready. If there is water remaining, continue to cook on low-medium heat until the water has evaporated.

Notes:

• Pan-frying with a little water allows for your dumplings to be steamed at the same time as achieving the irresistible crispy base.
• Cooked from frozen, your dumplings are ready in 8-10 minutes.

Steam Dumplings

Instructions:

1. Place water in pot and bring to the boil.
2. Line steamer with lettuce or cabbage leaves. Alternatively, you can use perforated non-stick paper.
3. Place dumplings on lined steamer, allowing enough space between dumplings for steam to get through and so that they do not stick together when cooking.
4. Once water is boiling, place steamer baskets on the pot with the lid on.
5. Steam on high to 8-10 minutes (10 minutes if cooking from frozen).

Notes:

• Keep an eye on water levels as it starts evaporating. Add more boiling water if necessary.

Boil Dumplings

Instructions:

1. Fill pot with a large amount of water and bring to the boil.
2. Once water is bubbling, place dumplings into the pot. Drizzle a little oil into pot.
3. Place lid on and boil on high for 1 minute, then turn down to medium heat and continue to cook for another 8 minutes.

Notes:

• Don't overcrowd the pot with dumplings.
