- In batches, heat 1 to 2 tablespoons (it should coat the pan) of oil over medium-high heat. Add the dumplings and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, until the bottom is golden. Add a little bit of oil to the pan, and swirl, then flip the dumplings and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden. Repeat.
To steam the dumplings:
- Place a steamer in a large pot and add about 2 inches of water. Bring the water to a boil, and then reduce heat to a simmer. Place a piece of parchment on the steamer and place dumplings. add dumplings and steam, covered for about 10 minutes.
