These dumplings are filled with succulent salmon, marinated in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce, and wrapped in a delicate dumpling skin. This dish is perfect for a light lunch or as an appetizer for a dinner party.

Ingredients (makes 20 dumplings):

- 200g salmon fillet, skin removed and finely chopped
- 1 tbsp teriyaki sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 green onion, finely chopped
- 20 dumpling wrappers
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup water

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure the salmon is finely chopped to ensure even cooking.
- Use a non-stick pan to prevent the dumplings from sticking.
- Keep the dumpling wrappers covered with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.

2. Place a spoonful of the salmon mixture in the center of a dumpling wrapper.
3. Wet the edges of the wrapper with water and fold it in half, pressing the edges together to seal.
4. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
5. Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
6. Add the dumplings and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.
7. Pour in the water and cover the pan with a lid.
8. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the dumplings are cooked through and the water has evaporated.
