Cooking Instructions

Dumplings:

Add 1.5 Tbsp of oil to a cold, nonstick pan
Arrange frozen dumplings in pan, pleated side up, flat bottom side down
For 12 dumplings, add 1/2 cup water; for 6 dumplings, add 1/3 cup water to the pan
Turn the heat on HIGH
Cover your pan, wait for water to boil. Once the water is boiling, lower the heat to medium
Cook 8-10 minutes with the cover on, or until water is fully cooked off
Remove the cover or lid, and continue to cook 2-3 minutes further or until bottoms are golden brown and crispy. Check frequently making sure the dumplings do not burn.
Serve with the sauce and enjoy!

Wontons:

Bring a pot with 10 cups of water to a rolling boil
Stir up the water in one direction to create a vortex
Add fresh or frozen wontons and bring the water back to a boil, be careful not to agitate the wontons too much because of their delicate skins
Once boiling, lower the heat to a slow simmer
After 2-3 minutes in the boiling water, the wontons will float to the surface, once floating, keep cooking the wontons for an additional minute. The total cooking time will be about 3-4 minutes.
Turn off the heat, and ladle the wontons out gently with a slotted spoon into a serving bowl
Drizzle wontons with the included red chili oil sauce and top with cilantro and scallions - serve immediately
