Method
Combine flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture and knead for 10 minutes.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The dough is smooth and elastic after kneading. Add the water gradually while bringing the dough together.
Divide the dough into small balls and roll out each ball into a thin circle.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Each dough round is thin and even. Keep the unused dough covered while you shape the dumplings.
Place a tablespoon of pork mixture in the center of each dough circle.
Fold the dough over the filling and press the edges together to seal the dumpling.
Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the dumplings for 10-15 minutes.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The dumplings are cooked through and the wrappers are tender. Cook in batches if needed to avoid crowding the pot.
Serve the dumplings with your favorite dipping sauce.
