Cooking tips:
1, in the fried eggplant diced, the water as far as possible to fry some dry, so that in the package when the soup will be less, easier to package molding.
2. The amount of water should be determined by the amount of water absorbed by the flour, until it is soft and firm. The dough may not be easy to knead smoothly, but let it rest for a while, so that the dough and water are thoroughly integrated, and then knead again when it is very easy to knead smooth and effortless.
3. Add a pinch of salt to prevent the cooked dumplings from sticking together.
