Dumplings with Cathy!

Today we all had a go at making a dumpling!  First we had to roll the dough into a little ball and then stretch it out in our hands so that it makes a flat circle.  After that we spooned in the filling and closed it up into a half moon shape.  We learnt that the Chinese make their dumplings into this shape because it is a symbol for money and if you eat the dumpling it can bring you success and money.  Finally we boiled our dumplings in a big pot before tasting them.  Some people thought they were delicious!  Thank you Cathy :)
