Directions:
Add all ingredients except dumpling wrappers in the bowl of a food processor and pulse in 1 second bursts until mixture is evenly chopped but not pureed. Put in a large bowl and place in the fridge for an hour or so. When ready to make the dumplings, hold a wrapper in your hand and moisten the edge with water using a pastry brush. Place 1 teaspoon mixture in the center and then seal the top and bottom edges. Then push in the right side and seal and then the left. Make sure the dumplings are totally sealed. When ready to cook, grease a wide skillet and fill with 1/2 inch of water or so. Bring to a boil and place as many dumplings that will fit in one layer. Cover, and steam for 5-7 minutes. Serve with dipping sauces of choice.
