Make-Ahead Pork Dumplings

Great recipe! Always have rave reviews, I make this for parties. I often pan-fry the dumplings with a bit of water (1/3 c.) and oil in a pan, cover, and let the water steam the dumpling and the oil brown/fry the pastry, then flip when browned. I also mix a dipping sauce of chili-garlic paste, soy sauce, and sugar (splenda).

I made this for my husbands 40th birthday cocktail party and it was the hit of the party. I used used one pkg of ground pork vs. the pork loin and the pork sausage. I'm making them again for my friends NYE party. Also such a great make ahead recipe. I made 200 in one afternoon and still have some in bags in my freezer to use for any last minute guests.
