Directions
1. Take a large mixing bowl and add the pork, garlic powder, soy sauce, shaoxing cooking wine, sesame oil, the chives, cabbage and the ginger juice. Mix well until thoroughly blended. Refrigerate for 20 minutes while you prepare the wrappers.
2. Take a bowl and mix in flour and water and blend until you get a rough ball of dough. Knead for at least 10 minutes and set it aside to rest for another 10 - 15 minutes.
3. Roll the dough into a long 1-inch thick snake and cut into 1 cm thick sections. Roll flat into 3-inch diameter rounds.
4. Start with a spoonful of the filling placed in the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edge with water, fold over and seal the edges.
5. Take a pan with boiling water. Pop in the sealed wrappers and cook them until they float.
6. To make the dipping sauce, take a bowl and combine soy sauce, Chinese red vinegar and chili oil.
SERVING
7. Serve warm with the dipping sauce.
