This is a truly excellent and tasty recipe. The dumplings are a little work intensive to put together, but since they only take about 5 minutes to cook, the prep time doesn't matter. I boiled my dumplings the first time I made them, and now that I have a steamer, I steam them, not being a fan of fried dumplings. I did take a few short cuts with the recipe. Instead of the carrot, onion and Chinese cabbage, I used a slaw mix that had broccoli shoots in it, that saved a significant amount of prep time!

This is a very good recipe. I did a mixture of pork and beef and then followed the recipe exactly. The next time, I would add scallions instead of onion and sesame oil instead of vegetable oil like others suggested. I tried boiling them a few at a time and it was watery and the wonton fell apart. I also tried steaming them and it was much better and the wonton stayed together and had better texture. I will make these again for sure.

Wow! This recipe turned out really yummy! I did make a few changes: 2 tsp chopped garlic to the meat mixture. I mixed the ingredients together several hours prior to cooking and placed in the refrigerator to "marinate". I also added salt and chicken buillon cubes to the boiling water to add flavor. My husband could not stop talking about how good these dumplings turned out! Thank you for this recipe!

I cannot give this 5*s b/c I wasn't able to make it as is. I'm not able to eat cabbage so I made them with sweet potato as a substitute. I must say they are delicious! I steamed them for 10mins, but next time I'll bake them. B/c there were so many (aprox. 40-45 dumplings) I steamed enough for two and froze the rest to make later. My favorite kind of recipe!

Takes a while to make the dumplings, but they are def worth the time and effort! I made a few "test" dumplings exactly as the receipe states with the exception I used sesame oil instead of vegetable oil and green oinions instead of regular onion. The dumplings were a little too bland for my taste so I added some garlic powder and a couple tablespoons of oyster sauce. My picky-eating husband LOVED them! I took the rest to a pot luck lunch at work and the entire staff loved them. Many requests for the receipe! Also, used the Teriyaki Dipping Sauce receipe another reviewer suggested, highly recommend it!

I have to admit, I am very happy with how these came out!! My family and I couldn't eat faster if we tried! They are a lot of work but you get in a routine and you are done in no time and it is well worth it!! I scaled it down a bit with just 1 lb. of ground beef, 2 cups of rainbow slaw (so I didn't have to shred), and used green onions instead of regular. I did leave the amount of seasoning the same and it was soooo GOOD!! You have to try this!!

These were all right. I thought they were way too much work for the quality of product. I didn't like the way they came out of the water - unless one was going to use them in soup perhaps. I fried them and they were fine but...

This is hardly an accurate review of this recipe. I had been given a recipe for Chicken Dumplings by an Oriental woman that I used to work with. She quoted the recipe from memory and spoke broken English so I assumed it was this reason that my dumlings were not as tasty as hers. I used parts of this recipe to to recreate her yummy dumplings. I substituted 1lb of ground chicken for 1.5lbs beef, 4-5 chopped green onions for regular onion, and sesame oil for vegetable oil. She always fried her dumplings but never said that she boiled them, so I tried boiling them first, then frying them over a medium low heat. I found that when you boiled them in a sauce pan, you had to stir until the water boiled again or a few would stick to the bottom, and if you fry the boiled dumplings on too high a heat, they stick. In the end I came to the conclusion that if you want to fry the dumplings, boiling isn't necessary. My co-workers dumplings are still the best, but these were pretty good

WOW! These were amazing! I used chicken, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. I also scaled it down (using only 1 lb of chicken) and it still made a ton of dumplings. But, I'm glad to have the leftovers. These truly are worth your efforts. It does take some time to make each dumpling, but the time you spend making them you get back with the short cooking time. Just excellent...thanks for the recipe.

Delicious flavor all around. I made it exactly as written and it turned out great. One thing that wasn't clear is the size of the wrapper used. We used wanton wrappers which are smaller than egg roll wrappers...LOTS of work, but good. I tried boiling and just got a mess, we ended up steaming them which is more traditional.

I used ground pork instead of beef and it was really nice! My family doesn't like the texture of steamed duplings so I pan fried it. The wontons came up crispy and perfectly cooked! I love these little bundles!!

I made this with ground chicken, pre-packaged "Angel Hair" slaw, and omitted the egg. I also replaced the wonton wrappers with gyoza wrappers (egg free) and deep fried them. I couldn't cook them fast enough for my family. My child who has an egg allergy was able to enjoy them as well with my modifications. This does make a lot of filling and there are a lot of wrappers per pack, so we have enough to make another batch to freeze or steam, but the deep fried version, albeit not so healthy, were super tasty!

WOW! Taste like restaurant yumcha. I would suggest to use green onions. This gives the recipe an authentic oriental taste. I tried boiling and frying, both ways are delicious. About 500 grams ground beef will make 80 plus dumplings - that's if you fill it with 1 teaspoon(not heaping)per dumpling. Teaspoon size filling is good because wonton wrapping cooks so fast. If you put too much filling you will end up with burnt wonton, uncooked filling.If you are frying it, the temperature should not be too hot or the wonton wrapping will brown too quickly or burn.You can also freeze this recipe.I used glad wrap in between layers to prevent dumplings from sticking.No need to thaw out if using it frozen.Just make sure your water is boiling before dropping the dumplings.If frying your dumplings, your cooking oil temperature should be similar to frying an egg.This recipe is a keeper!

My fussy 9 y/o daughter LOVES to make and this recipe. It is so easy, but makes A LOT. I found the filling freezes nicely too. The only thing I changed was, I used ground chicken instead of beef, (just because it's what I had) it was still very yummy!
