  1. Prepare the Filling: Combine cabbage, mushrooms, carrots, green onions, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl.

  2. Roll Out the Dough: Divide the dough into small balls (about the size of a ping pong ball). Roll each ball into a thin circle, about 3 inches wide.

  3. Fill the Dumplings: Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over and seal the edges by pressing them together.
