To Finish

Step 3

-Work in batches of 5-8 dumplings for best result here. -In 6 or 8 inch nonstick pan, place about 1 Tablespoon of neutral oil, like vegetable, and heat on medium heat until it begins to ripple. -Place 5-8 dumplings in the pan and let them cook until the bottoms have just started to brown slightly. -Make sure to whisk the lacey skirt ingredients right before using, then pour about 1/4 cup of it into the pan, evenly pouring all around. -Immediately place the lid to the pan on top and cook covered for about 3 minutes. -Remove the lid and once the skirt is completely crisp, turn off the heat and allow to cool for about a minute. -Invert the dumplings onto a plate and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or chili crisp!
