Introduction

Ingredients List
Important Notes
【Microwave Dumplings】Water must be sufficient with a pinch of salt. Using warm or hot water is recommended. Stirring midway prevents sticking and keeps the skin chewy and juices locked in. ⏱️
【Soy Milk Pan-Fried Dumplings】Adding oil to the soy milk-flour mixture ensures the crust is crispy and non-sticky. Stir well before pouring to prevent settling. Cook over low heat throughout. 🔥
【Air-Fried Dumplings】Use cooked, cooled dumplings. Brushing with a light layer of oil ensures a crispy texture without being dry. Omit chili if you prefer non-spicy. 🍳
【Baked Dumplings】The tomato meat sauce should remain slightly saucy so the dumplings don't dry out. Preheat the oven to 180°C before baking. 💡
