Wei-Chuan USA Frozen dumplings come in a variety of delicious flavors and are incredibly versatile. Inspired by Italian-American Deep Fried Ravioli, we used the Mei Jia Jen style dumplings with the Beef & Green Onion filling in place of the traditional ravioli. These dumplings are breaded in a seasoned Panko and fried to golden perfection. Served with a sweet Chinese 5-spice marinara sauce with chili crisp for a little flair. These Deep Fried Dumplings are sure to be a hit for your NYE Party!
