If you lack the skill or time to make the dumpling dough from scratch, here's a way to "cheat" by using white floured dumpling skin available from the chilled section of Asian grocery store.
Common ingredients for filling are minced meat, chives, shrimp and mushroom. Add a little salt and pepper and mix well. Instead of the usual way of sealing the sides of the dumpling, simply fold into half and fold again. It's ready to be pan fried.
The two types of dipping sauces are : (1) ginger shreds with dark vinegar or (2) chilli oil, soy sauce and sesame oil sauce
I was told by a northern Chinese the name of this handy dish is "taling" jiaozi or guotie.
