Prepare dumplings by diluting some of the coconut milk with flour and salt, kneading it into a dough.

Roll out the dough into desired shapes, making pigtails if preferred.

Check when the pot is done by ensuring most of the liquid has evaporated, but not all, to avoid the dish being too dry.

Remove the cover and serve.
