Hello! I'm a first generation BBC (British born Chinese). My father immigrated here in the 1960's and has opened 2 restaurants. The first was a generic Chinese restaurant (it was the 70's after all) that was torn down to make way for a shopping mall, and the second was considered to be one of the first specialist Chinese joints opened in the UK, a Szechuan/Peking (before being renamed Beijing) restaurant in the 80's. As is customary with Chinese families, children are considered free labour so I worked part-time at this restaurant during my school days and started off helping out in the kitchen which is where I wrapped my first dumpling! This was a 鍋貼 (translation: wor tip - literally a potsticker!) and I've never stopped making dumplings ever since. I would love to introduce you to the same delights and show you how quick and easy to make them in your own home.
