Ingredients

• 200 grams Ground pork
• 100 grams Green cabbage
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon Low sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
• 1 unit Egg white
• 24 units Dumpling wrappers
• 0 Vegetable oil spray
• 0.25 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the green cabbage and lightly salt it. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to release excess moisture, then squeeze out the water.

Step 2

Mince the garlic and ginger. Thinly slice the green onions.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and egg white. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.

Step 4

Place about one tablespoon of filling in the center of a dumpling wrapper.

Step 5

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water, fold it over to form a half-moon shape, and press the edges tightly to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with vegetable oil spray.

Step 7

Arrange dumplings in the skillet, making sure they don't touch.

Step 8

Cook the dumplings for about 2 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 9

Add 0.25 cup of water to the skillet and quickly cover with a lid to steam the dumplings.

Step 10

Let them steam for another 5 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through and the water is evaporated.

Step 11

Remove the lid and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms.

Step 12

Serve hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
