I use chicken mince..... I throw everything into my kitchen whizzy thing.... Chicken mince pickled chilli lime leaves sesame oil garlic salt pepper blend.....
I always fry a bit of the mince first and taste to see if it needs anything else and then use...

I make my own chinese dumplings...
basic recipe for me is:
Pork mince (will try chicken next time) finely chopped celery, spring onion, grated carrots Sometimes I'll add really finely sliced chinese cabbage sweet chilli sauce, sesame oil, light soy sauce, fish sauce
Bascially whatever I have on hand really...

its gotta be pork and you can use just about anything but don't forget the sesame oil!!!
my fave is just a little cabbage and loads of pork, salt, pepper, chives, and some soy and chili-bean paste a few eggs so they don't fall apart and if they do it doesn't make a mess of the soup.
but my fave is the dipping sauce for the end product (unless your doing a soup which you prob are as your doing wonton rather than dumplings)
it has to be good chinese black vinegar which lots of grated ginger and a little sugar. (also great with crabs and mussels freshly steamed)

I was told the trick is getting the skins that are suitable for frying.....and do not over fill. Ensure your filling is as dry as possible
