These were good. I used the ginger as suggested by someone else. I think it added more flavor to the mixture. Next time I think I am going to add more filler, for me it needed more filler with the meat. BUT that is a personal opinion. Will be making again!! Thanks for sharing. -
This is an excellent recipe, I also use ground ginger 1/4 tsp.It is sometimes called gioza.The pork does not have to be precooked if you boil or steam it longer, the flavors blend quicker. You can make ahead, steam and freeze in double bags Then reheat in microwave. I cooked this in Japan.You may serve sweet & sour sauce as a dip also.

I live in a little house with my husband and my three "puppies" (all dogs are puppies to me, no matter how old they are). We have no children as of yet. I love to cook, but not to clean, and I won't cook unless my kitchen is clean, so I don't cook as much as I should. Some of my other hobbies are: role playing games, reading, SCA, garage saleing, and sewing. I am a pack rat, but I am trying to cut back on that, and I have far too many kitchen gadgets and cookbooks.(If there is such a thing.)
