Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup water (plus extra if needed)

1/2 lb ground pork (or chicken)

1 cup finely chopped green onions

1 tablespoon ginger, minced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon chili paste (adjust to taste)

4 cups chicken broth

1 tablespoon soy sauce (for broth)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Sliced red chili for garnish

Instructions
 

Make the Dumpling Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and water. Mix until the dough comes together. Knead for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.

    Prepare the Dumpling Filling: In another bowl, mix the ground pork (or chicken), chopped green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, chili paste, salt, and pepper. Ensure everything is well incorporated.

      Form the Dumplings: Roll the rested dough into a long log, cut into small pieces (about 1-inch each). Flatten each piece into a circle, about 3 inches in diameter. Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape, sealing the edges well by pinching them together.

        Prepare the Soup Base: In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a gentle simmer. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

          Cook the Dumplings: Carefully add the dumplings to the simmering broth. Let them cook for about 5-7 minutes or until they float to the top and are cooked through.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring to include dumplings. Garnish with fresh cilantro and sliced red chili for added heat and flavor.
