Heat the veggie oil over high heat in the same skillet. Working in batches, pan-fry the dumplings by
placing them bottom-side down and frying until golden brown.
Once the dumplings are golden brown, pour cup water into the skillet to cover the dumplings halfway.
Immediately cover with a lid, leaving a small crack for steam to escape. Cook until the water has
evaporated. Transfer the dumplings to a paper towel-lined plate to soak up excess oil and repeat the
process with the remaining dumplings.

Yields: 32 to 36 dumplings
