Making dumplings is actually not called a dumpling, because it is just folded diagonally. Take a slice of winter melon, pat the cornstarch around, wrap it in the middle, and gently squeeze the diagonal corners to form a crystal dumpling and place it on a plate ( A little oil can be applied to the plate to prevent sticking).

Boil a pot under water and steam on high heat for 4 minutes
20.
Garnish with medlar, and hook a little thinly at the end.
Tips:
1. The winter melon must be thick and easy to cut into thin slices. The height to width ratio is about 7cm:7cm, because the winter melon slices are crystal skins, so they are too small to be packaged.
2. The slices of wax gourd must be salted to make it easy to pack.
3. The steaming time of dumplings should not be too long, as the skin of the dumplings will crack and affect the appearance. In addition, because the vegetarian stuffing has been fried, steam it for 4 minutes. If you use meat stuffing, it should be fried in advance.
