I never liked Chinese Chives before i got married. Chinese Chives is something rarely found in my mum's cooking. I guess, it's not one of the Hakka traditional ingredients. Chinese Chives Kuih / pancake (Teow Chew Style) is a common snack in my Mother In law's home. Even these Kuih are made for prayers. I have tried but just too hard.
Anyway, when comes to dumpling. I love Chinese Chives with Pork. I think its really a hassle to make the dumpling skin for a rookie like me. Even wrapping each dumplings really took me alot of time and effort. Should snap the first few dumplings that i wrapped. Really looks ugly although these ones are not so good etiher!! haha but too late, already inside my stomach.
