Stir in the sesame oil and mix well.


2. Add 9 oz (250 ml) of cold water gradually to the flour and mix into a dough.

Let rest. Turn out onto a flour board and knead until firm and

elastic.


3. Knead the dough again and cut into 1/2 oz (15 g) balls. Flatten each ball lightly with your hand, then roll out each piece into a 3 inch (7 to 8 cm) circle, rotating the dough counter-clockwise while rolling so the centre is slightly thicker than the edges. Place about 1 to 1 1/2 tbsp (20 g) of filling on each circle and pinch the edges together into 18 pleats. Place the dumpling in a steamer and steam for 5 minutes over high heat.


Note: These dumplings are delicate in appearance and taste.

the wrappers are thin and the filling deliciously juicy
