Suey Choy Pork Dumpling
Betty made Suey Choy Pork Dumpling in the Caring Place Community Kitchen a couple weeks ago.
This is the pan fried version which I find is more tasty than the boiled version. The boiled version is best served in hot broth to keep it warm. You can check out the technique of making the boiled version at this link.
Ingredients
- 1 package of fresh dumpling skin (about 50 pieces)
- 1 lb lean ground pork
- 1 small suey choy (1 lb or more), finely chopped
- 3 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon of minced ginger
- 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
 Marinate with pork with dark soy sauce, sesame seed oil, green onion and ginger for half an hour. |
 In the meantime, finely chopped the suey choy. You may substitute the suey choy with flat chives. The addition of prawns will enhanced the chives flavour. Add the chopped suey choy into the marinated pork and mix well. |
 This is a quick technique of making dumpling demonstrated by Betty.Put a tablespoon of filling onto the dumpling skin. Pinch the top together. |
 Place the dumpling between your thumb and index fingers on both hands and press the remaining unseal skin together tightly. |
 It does need a lot of practice to make a good looking dumpling. We had a lot fun try our hands on making the dumplings. You can see there are various shapes of dumplings in the tray made by different people. |
 Betty first cook the dumplings in boiling water until they float to the top. Then, the dumplings are removed from the boiling water, drained and dried using paper towels. She then panfried the dumplings until all sides are golden brown. |
Betty, thank you for sharing the technique of making dumplings.

I love pork & cabbage dumplings (but prefer boiled), I can eat them everyday !
Ooops, I commented above but forgot to sign in.
looks delicious
Looks so good! Where do you get your wrappers?
You may find such wrappers in Chinese groceries stores in places like Richmond Public Market, Crystal Mall and New Hong Kong Supermarket in Richmond.
Just wanted to add that in UK (and maybe other Western countries) this kind of dumpling is called “Pot Stickers” and in Japan, they are known as “Gyoza”.
I want also to add that I totally love your illustrative step-by-step pictorial guides to your recipes! I think ALL recipes should be presented in this manner! It’s so helpful and clear! Well done and keep it up!! Thanks!
YUM
