This easy recipe will bring your dumplings dream come true! Make them at home, keeping the authentic Chinese taste intact and you will never run to restaurants to grab them! I must say that our numerous visits to various restaurants in the China Town, in Central London, just to taste their authentic dumplings, have always been tantamount to a massive disappointment.
