The delight of dumplings

The smell of shiitake mushrooms mingled with the scent of the cabbage and filled the room with its delicious fragrance.

My mouth waters and my stomach groans as I think of the warm crispy dumplings, happily sizzling away in the shallow oil.

I can take it no longer so I cross the kitchen to the oven and begin taking the dumplings out of the big black frypan and on to my plate.

I add a generous dash of soy sauce and take a giant bite. The hot treat is, well, hot. Really. Really hot. It burns the roof of my mouth but I hardly notice over the taste of the dumplings. The delicious dumplings.
