Make Dumplings-饺子

Make Dumplings
   Dumpling is a traditional Chinese food. On the lunar New Year' s Day, most families make a lot of delicious dumplings. To make them, follow this easy process.
   The first step is to mix the flour with water. When the dough is ready, we can begin to make dumpling wrappers. We use a rolling pole to roll the dough into small, thin and round pieces so that they will be easy to cook. When the wrappers are done, it' s time to prepare the filling. Usually, we use meat such as beef or mutton, and some vegetables such as cabbage or carrots for filling. You may actually choose whatever you like to put into it. We must chop those things into small pieces. Then put some salt, oil and other condiments into it and stir it evenly. When all these preparations are done, we can start making dumplings. First put a spoonful of filling in the center of the wrapper. Then stick the two opposite sides together and then the rest. Don' t just cover the filling with the wrappers. The best shape of dumplings is that of a ship, because when they are boiling in the pan, they look like ships sailing in the sea. The smell can make your mouth water.
饺子
   饺子是一种传统的中国食品。在农历新年，大多数家庭都会包很多美味的饺子。要包饺子，请按照下列简单的程序。
   第一步是用水和面。和好面之后，我们可以开始擀皮。用一根擀面杖把面团擀成又薄又小的圆形面皮，这样好煮。皮擀好之后，就该准备馅了。通常我们用肉(比如牛肉和羊肉)还有蔬菜(比如白菜和胡萝卜)作馅。你也可以用你喜欢的东西做馅。我们必须把这些东西切碎，放上一些盐，油和其他调料，然后均匀搅拌。当所有这些都弄妥后，我们就可以包饺子了。首先放一勺馅在饺子皮的中央，把两边牢牢粘住，然后把剩余的包好。不能只用皮裹住馅。饺子最好的形状是船型的，因为当它们在锅里煮的时候，看起来就像是大海里的船只。它们的香味会让你口水直流的。
