Method
Prepare the Dough:
- Combine the flour and salt in a large heat-safe bowl. Slowly pour in the boiling water while stirring, until you have a course mixture. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water to form a dough.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth adding the flour as necessary. Dough should be slightly sticky. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let set for 20 min.
Prepare the Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, chicken broth, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, salt, scallions and a bunch of turns of pepper.
Assemble the dumplings:
- Divide the dough in 24 balls. Roll out the dough in to 4 inch circles, flouring as needed. Place 1 tablespoon filling in the center of each and fold in half to make a half moon shape, pleating the edges.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the dumplings in batches for 4 minute intervals. Remove with a slotted spoon, allowing excess water to drip off. Heat a thin layer of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the dumplings in batches in the hot oil for 2-3 minutes or until until brown. Serve with the dipping sauce.
For the Dipping Sauce:
- In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, sesame seed oil, scallions and red pepper flakes. Mix all the ingredients together.
