Mix together all the ingredients for the filling – vegan pork mince, shitake mushrooms, spring onions, minced garlic, ginger, seasonings and sesame oil.
Add a spoonful of filling to each dumpling wrapper and fold it inwards.
Add olive oil to a pan and place the dumplings on top. Pan fry until light golden.
Add corn starch slurry and cover with lid for about 5 minutes. Once dumplings are fully cooked (wrappers will become translucent) and there will be a nice brown crispy skirt, take them off the heat and transfer to a plate.
Top with chili oil crisp, black vinegar and spring onions.
