The materials needed to make dumplings are very simple, mainly as follows:

Step 2: Make stuffing.

If you like peanut powder stuffing, you can fry the peanut powder in a pot until it is cooked. Then, put the fried peanut powder into a small bowl, add appropriate amount of sugar and stir well. Those who like red bean paste stuffing can buy ready-made red bean paste directly.

Step 3: Fill.

Knead the prepared dumplings into strips and cut them into small pieces. Round each small piece, and then press it in the middle with your finger to make a bowl. Put a proper amount of stuffing into a bowl-shaped glutinous rice ball, then pinch the edge tightly and knead it into a circle.

Cook jiaozi in boiling water until they float. Then, take out the dumplings with a colander and put them in a bowl. Finally, according to personal taste, you can sprinkle some peanut powder or sesame seeds as decoration.
