In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.

Take a dumpling wrapper and place a small spoonful of the filling in the center.

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold it in half, and press firmly to seal.

Add a tablespoon of oil to a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Once the oil is hot, place the dumplings in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them.

Carefully pour in about 1/4 cup of water and cover the skillet immediately.

After about 5 minutes, remove the lid and let the remaining water evaporate.

Once they are golden brown, transfer the dumplings to a plate.
