Makes about 50 dumplings

1 pound ground pork 
1/2 tablepsoon fresh minced ginger root
2 cloves fresh minced garlic
1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil

Place 1 heaping teaspoon of pork or turkey filling onto the center of each wonton skin. Moisten edges with water and pinch the wonton skin up to form a little ball and to seal in the filling.

Set dumplings aside on a lightly floured surface until ready to cook.

To Cook: Steam dumplings in a covered bamboo or metal steamer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Very nice served with hoisin sauce, hot Chinese style mustard and toasted sesame seeds.
