1 Dollar Dumplings (3 Ways)

In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Mix well.

Gradually add the water while mixing until a shaggy dough forms.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 20 minutes.

In a bowl, combine ground pork, chopped green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

In a separate bowl, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, chopped green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well.

In a third bowl, combine chopped shrimp, chopped green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix until just combined.

Divide the rested dough into small, equal portions. Roll each portion into a thin circle (about 3-4 inches in diameter).

Place a spoonful of your chosen filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half and pleat the edges to seal, or use your preferred dumpling folding method.

Place the formed dumplings on a lightly floured surface or parchment paper, ensuring they don't touch each other.

Heat a tablespoon of neutral oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Arrange the dumplings in a single layer in the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Carefully add about 1/4 cup of water to the skillet (it will steam). Immediately cover with a lid and reduce heat to medium-low. Steam for 4-5 minutes, or until the wrappers are translucent and the filling is cooked through.

Remove the lid and let any remaining water evaporate. Serve the dumplings immediately with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce and rice vinegar, with optional chili oil.
