* Note: See the "Dipping Sauce" recipe which is included in this
collection.

Combine filling ingredients well and chill at least 2 hours or overnight.
Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in center of a wrapper and gather edges
around forming an openfaced dumpling. Continue filling remaining wrappers
and arrange on a baking sheet lightly dusted with cornstarch. May be
prepared up to 8 hours in advance and stored uncovered in a closed
container. Do not thaw before cooking. To serve: Heat 1 tablespoon
vegetable oil in a pan and saute dumplings over moderate heat in one layer
with flat side down until lightly browned. Add stock mixture and steam
dumplings, covered, over moderate heat for 3 minutes or until filling is
cooked through. If using frozen dumplings steam 6 to 8 minutes, adding more
stock if necessary. Cook remaining dumplings in same manner. Place oriental
greens in center of warm plate, arrange cooked dumplings around and serve
Dipping Sauce on side or drizzled over dumplings. Garnish with cilantro
sprigs. This recipe yields approximately 30 dumplings.
