- 1 cup Napa cabbage, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Rice wine vinegar
- 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch

Directions
Step 1
Chop the shrimp into small pieces and place in a mixing bowl.
Step 2
Add finely chopped napa cabbage, green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the bowl with shrimp.
Step 3
Pour in low sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice wine vinegar. Mix until all the ingredients are well combined.
Step 4
Place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of a wonton wrapper.

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry.
Step 6
Use your finger to brush the edges of the wrapper with the cornstarch slurry to help seal.
Step 7
Fold the wrapper in half to form a half-moon shape, pressing the edges together tightly. Use a fork to crimp the edges or pleat them for a traditional look, ensuring the dumplings are fully sealed.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 9
In a steamer lined with parchment paper or cabbage leaves, place the dumplings in a single layer so they don't touch.
