Making dumplings isn't as easy as many have thought. Yesterday, my mum and I were busy preparing the fillings and other materials for making the dumplings. We have to wash the leaf, stir fry each ingredient separately and stir the rice together with red bean (ya, forget to tell u all that her dumpling got red beans one. Her unique way of making dumplings) This morning, we made a total of 130 dumplings of which only 5 of them are made by me. I woke up late and by the time I started helping my dad and mum, there wasn't much ingredients left. However, my skill of wrapping dumplings improved. They were in the right shape and looked as good as theirs after I tied them. Last year, either my dumplings were not triangle in shape or they were not tied correctly and dropped off a while after I tied them. This year is the 3th year we were making dumplings after my mum stop making them when I was very young. So it is my 3rd time making dumplings. Although we only made it for the 3rd year, there were a lot of orders from relatives and friends. We have to give to at least 12 families and each family 6 - 8. So though we made 130, we were only around 30 in the end. Ha, my mum's dumplings were delicious, probably the best in the world. =) So, my relatives would prefer to get my mum's dumplings though some other relatives made dumplings too. The number of orders increase every year. So we would probably have to prepare making more next year...
