Fried Dumplings

Today, I decided to fry dumplings instead of wantans. Method is almost the same except that the wrappers are different. Ingredients
50g shelled prawns, minced
100g pork, minced
20g water chestnuts, chopped finely
20 pcs dumpling wrappers (round type)

Seasoning:
1/2 tbsp light soy sauce
Pinch of pepper
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp corn flour

Dipping sauce (combine):
3 tbsp ketchup,
1/2 tbsp white vinegar,
1 tbsp sugar,
50 ml water,
pinch of salt,
1/2 tsp cornflour.

Method:
Place the filling in the centre of each dumpling wrapper.
Seal the edges of each wrapper with a bit of water
Fold into semi-circle shape.
Wet the edges and pinch to make patterns. (or just leave it plain w/o patterns)
Repeat until all wrappers are done.
Heat enough oil in a wok until just hot.
Put in dumpling in batches and deep-fry until golden brown in colour.
Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve the crispy dumpling with the dipping sauce or mayonnaise.

To prepare the sauce:
Ccombine all the ingredients for the sauce and cook well.
This sauce is also ideal for any other deep-fried foods.
