A Little Slice of Heaven

1lb. ground pork
½ cup Napa cabbage, core and ribs removed, finely diced
1 cup thinly sliced scallions
2 tablespoons cooking sherry
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 - 12oz. package round dumpling or wonton wrappers
Cooking oil, either vegetable or sesame

In a medium bowl, combine ground pork, cabbage, scallions, sherry, grated ginger, soy sauce and salt, mix well to combine. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the filling mixture in the center of the each dumpling wrapper and fold the wrapper in half. Using your finger, moisten the edge of the wrapper with water to seal the dumpling together. Gently pinch the dumpling edge together to reinforce the seal and remove any air pockets. Repeat with the remaining dumplings. Boil the dumplings in batches for about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from pot and gently pat dry. Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the dumplings in the skillet and fry on one side until golden brown. Serve with sweet chili sauce or soy sauce for dipping.
