delicious Asian snack – a little more elaborate – but visually spectacular!, makes 40 pieces

For the dough, place flour and salt on a work surface and make a well in the dough. Pour oil and about 75 ml of lukewarm water into the well and knead everything into a smooth dough. Wrap in cling film and let rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes. For the filling, mix the minced meat with the spring onions, garlic, and ginger and season with salt and pepper. Roll out the dough thinly on a lightly floured surface and let rest for another 5 minutes. Then cut out discs (about 5 cm in diameter). Place half a teaspoon of filling on each disc. Brush the edges of the dough lightly with water and press the four corners together with your fingers. Place in a bamboo steamer or a metal steamer insert over a pot of boiling water and steam for about 5 minutes. Serve immediately. Leave enough space between the discs as they will expand slightly. I serve them with ready-made Asian chili sauce. TIP: If necessary, place baking paper on the steamer insert, as the dumplings can easily stick.
