Juicy pork dumplings are pan-fried until the bottoms turn golden and crispy while the tops remain tender. These protein-packed family favorites are perfect for freezer meal prep and make a satisfying snack or meal.
In a large bowl, combine ground pork, finely shredded green cabbage, sliced scallions, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger. Mix well.
Add soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and ground white pepper to the pork mixture. Stir thoroughly until the filling is cohesive and slightly sticky.
Place a dumpling wrapper flat in your palm. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of filling into the center. Moisten the wrapper edge with water, fold in half, and pleat to seal tightly.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange half the dumplings in a single layer, flat side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms turn golden brown.
Carefully pour in 1/2 cup water, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and reduce heat to medium-low. Steam the dumplings for 5-6 minutes, until the wrappers are translucent and filling is cooked through.
Remove the lid and increase heat to medium. Let any excess water evaporate and cook an additional minute to crisp up the bottoms.
Repeat frying, steaming, and crisping process with remaining dumplings. Serve hot with dipping sauce if desired.
