1 tablespoon sesame oil (Optional especially if you have a sesame allergy)
1 egg, beaten (Optional)
1 cup finely shredded / grated cabbage (Chinese or regular)
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the pork, ginger, garlic, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, egg and cabbage. Stir until well mixed.
Place 1 heaping teaspoon of pork filling onto each wonton skin. Moisten edges of wonton with water and fold edges over to form a triangle shape. Roll edges slightly to seal in filling. Set dumplings aside on a lightly floured surface until ready to cook (or refrigerate until ready to cook).
Using a Steamer: Arrange dumplings in a covered bamboo or metal steamer so they don’t touch to prevent them from sticking together; steam for 15 minutes, or until pork is cooked through.
Using a Hot Pot: Put your favorite package of hot pot spices in the pot full of water and bring the broth in the hotpot to a boil.
Add about a half dozen of the wonton / dumplings (at a time) into the boiling broth and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the pork inside the dumplings are cooked. Repeat until a sufficient number of dumplings are cooked for yourself and your guests.
Serve the dumplings hot with dipping sauces, such as a thickened teriyaki sauce or your favorite pepper base sauce or sweet garlic hot pot sauce.
