super easy
If your family love P.F Chang’s as much as my family does, you will love this at home version. These are crispy bottom, tender top pork dumplings taste just like the restaurant, but are made with less ingredients. If you make the dough homemade, they are preservative free! I make a big batch, freeze half and keep them on hand for busy weeknights when we have the craving for P.F Chang’s, but want it in the comfort of our own home.
