2In the flour, mix in a little salt and gradually add water to form a crumbly mixture. Then, knead into a dough and make uniform wrappers. Roll out the dough into thin wrappers ().
3Place the meat filling on the wrappers and shape them into dumplings. Sprinkle flour on the cutting board and arrange the dumplings on it.
4Add a little cooking oil to the pan and wait until the oil is hot. Then, add the dumplings and cook over low heat to form a crispy bottom layer first.
5Add an appropriate amount of water to the pan until it covers the dumplings by half. This prevents the water from being too much and softening the dumplings before they are cooked through. Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook until they are fully cooked.
