Chinese Soup with Dumplings

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup water
• ½ pound ground pork
• 2 stalks green onions
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 1 medium carrot
• ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. 1

   In a medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour and 0.5 cup water until a shaggy dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth, then cover and rest for 15 minutes.

2. 2

   In another bowl, combine 0.5 pound ground pork, 1 chopped green onion, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 0.25 teaspoon salt. Mix well.

3. 3

   Roll the rested dough into a thin sheet, about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 3-inch squares. Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each square, fold over to form a triangle, and press edges to seal.

4. 4

   In a large pot, bring 4 cups chicken broth to a boil. Add the dumplings and 1 sliced carrot. Cook for 8-10 minutes until dumplings float and are cooked through, and carrot is tender.

5. 5

   Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 0.25 teaspoon salt. Garnish with the remaining chopped green onion. Serve hot.

6. 6

   Optional: add a splash of sesame oil or a pinch of white pepper for extra flavor.
