These dumplings were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of chili sauce next time.

These dumplings were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would drain them on paper towels next time.

These dumplings were so easy to make and they turned out great. I used a store-bought dumpling wrapper and they still came out perfect. I will definitely be making these again.
