1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped Chinese chives
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 teaspoon chile-garlic sauce (e.g., Sriracha)
Directions
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, chives, sesame seeds, and chile-garlic sauce.
- Set the dipping sauce aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground pork, garlic, egg, chives, soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger until fully combined.
- On a lightly floured work surface, place a dumpling wrapper and spoon about 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture in the center.
- Wet the edge of the wrapper with a little water, then fold and crimp the edges to seal, forming pleats along the way. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Notes
- Serve the dumplings hot, accompanied by the dipping sauce.
