4. Form the flour pieces into a smooth ball, this is your yeast dough, set aside.

5. Stir Fry eggs, when eggs start getting firm, stir quickly so they turn into chunks instead of
a whole piece. Transfer to cutting board, wait until it’s cool, then chop into small pieces.

7. Chop dried shrimp and cellophane noodles into small pieces, mix everything together, add seasoning to your taste.

For seasoning, I normally just use salt and little bit sugar, nothing else since Chinese chive has a strong flavor itself.

8. Separate dough into little even pieces, then roll into little round wrap, fill in fillings, seal good, then flip upside down.
