Step 1

Make the dough in a large bowl. Combine the self-raising flour and the greek yoghurt. Stir using chopsticks or a wooden spoon. Then, knead for 5 minutes until you have a bouncy, soft dough. Cover with cling film and set aside for 10 minutes.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine all of the filling ingredients. Gently stir with chopsticks or your hands and then set aside.

Step 3

Get your dough and pierce it in the middle with your finger. Form a donut and then slice the donut to make a log (see my video on Instagram for reference). Slice your dough log into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece out into a circular wrapper that is around 1/2 cm thick and 3 inches in diameter. Sprinkle with flour to keep them from sticking.

Step 4

Place a spoonful of the filling into the center of the wrapper and seal in an anticlockwise motion (see my video for help on my Instagram). Repeat this step for all the wrappers.

Step 5

Place your dumplings onto little pieces of parchment paper, and then place them in your steamer. Steam for 10-15 minutes and then remove. You can either eat them now, or continue onto the next step to give your dumplings a crispy bottom!

Step 6

Grab a pan, place it on medium heat, and drizzle with oil. Add in your dumplings face up and fry for 4 minutes until the underside of the dumpling is golden and crispy. Remove from the pan and serve up while warm. Enjoy!
