Chinese dumplings or jiaozi, called gyoza in Japan and mandu in Korea, are made by wrapping a meat or vegetable filling in a flat dough which is crimped together around the edges. The dumplings are then either pan fried, boiled, or steamed. The version served at dim sum uses a thinner wrapper that is almost see-through.

Traditions
While eaten year-round as well, Chinese dumplings are traditionally eaten at Chinese New Year due to their shape, which symbolizes wealth. Sometimes families will hide a coin in a dumpling when making them for the holidays; the person who finds it will have good luck for the year.
