Pork and chive dumplings

Yum!  Biting into a juicy dumpling with the pop of savory pork flavor scented with chives is so satisfying.  Dumplings are a great thing to make together, with friends or family, but can be done alone with some time and patience.  If you get yourself organized with a production line then things should go relatively smoothly.

The dumpling sauce is from The Woks of Life but you can also buy a good store bought version.
