Mama's Dumplings

Ingredients:
• 1 package pork chops
• 1 package low sodium pork sausage
• 3 Tbs minced garlic
• 1 bunch of green onions (chopped)
• 1 bunch of fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger
• dash of salt
• 2 Tbs sesame oil
• 2 cans chopped water chestnuts
• 3 Tbs soy sauce
•  2 Tbs cornstarch
•  low sodium chicken broth
• won ton wrappers (in my grocery store, they are found near the garlic and fresh ginger)

What to do :
Put first three ingredients in the food processor and pulse until blended. Transfer meat mixture into a mixing bowl and add the next 8 ingredients. Stir until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 1/2 cup chicken broth. Stir into meat mixture. Finally, stir in another 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Wrap up in the won tons and you're ready to get cooking! These delicious dumplings are very easy to make, the most time consuming part is wrapping them!
