Mix all-purpose flour and water in a bowl until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5 minutes.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Finely chop cabbage and green onions, then set aside.

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

Mix the filling until well combined.

Divide the dough into small pieces and roll each into a thin circle.

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each dough circle.

Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal.

Prepare a steamer over boiling water and arrange dumplings inside.

Steam the dumplings for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.

For fried dumplings, heat oil in a pan and fry until golden brown on one side, then add water and cover to steam until cooked.

Serve with vinegar and chili oil for dipping.
