Step 1
Squeeze excess moisture from cabbage using paper towels or a clean cloth.
Step 2
Mix ground pork, cabbage, scallions, ginger, 1.5 tbsp soy sauce, and 0.5 tbsp sesame oil in a bowl.
Step 3
Spoon 1 tsp filling into center of each wrapper. Wet edges with water, fold in half, then pinch corners together.
Step 4
Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 5
Arrange dumplings flat-side down in the skillet in a single layer, without crowding. Fry 3 minutes until bottoms turn golden.
Step 6
Pour 1/4 cup water into the skillet, cover immediately, and steam 4 minutes until dumplings soften and water evaporates.
Step 7
Uncover, drizzle with remaining 1.5 tbsp sesame oil and 1.5 tbsp soy sauce. Serve hot with dipping sauce.
