<sing in tune of hot pockets> Leek pockets!

韭菜盒子 or direct translation "leek box". I just thought leek pockets was a catchier name. Tao and I have never made these before, but I have seen my mom and grandma make them before for me. I remembered all the ingredients from memory.. even mom was impressed remembered them all. Here's the list: leek, baked tofu curd, vermicelli, scrambled egg, ground pork, seasoning. As for the wrapper, based on our experience with ravioli (see earlier post) , tao got the mix right on the dot. Boiling water is the key. We made enough to eat and to freeze for a later date.

Verdict: SUCCESS!
