    The dumplings were amazing. I tweaked the recipe a little by adding a green onion finely chopped and 1 egg beaten in the ground meat. The sauce wasn't quite exactly what you eat at the restaurant. I'm not sure if is because i cannot find rice wine vinegar, so I used rice vinegar, but the vinegar taste is too strong in the sauce. Maybe I'll try using less vingear next time!

    The hardest thing about this recipe was not overeating! It went together easily. I added about 1 tbsp of finely minced water chestnuts to the pork filling, just because the ones I like in the restaurant have it, otherwise I made the recipe exactly as written. Had some trouble making the little dumplings until I figured out you have to dampen the edges with a wet finger, then they stayed closed nicely. Made 32, I probablyy used a bit too much filling in each. I will make this a regular!

    Words can't justify this recipe. Possibly the best thing that has ever entered my mouth! I've been looking for ages for any recipe that came close to the hunan dumplings I used to order at my favorite asian restaurant, and these beat them! I make these regularly now and guests go crazy for them. The only minor changes are that I used rice vinegar as I couldn't find rice wine vinegar, I doubled-up on the peanut butter as I like the sauce a little bit thicker, as well as dark soy sauce as I find it slightly more flavorful. Served with toasted sesame seeds on top. The dumplings also work very well in a bamboo steamer served with a variety of dipping sauces a la dim sum.
