2. **Prepare the Filling:**
– In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped cabbage, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

3. **Shape the Dumplings:**
– Divide the dough into small pieces (about 1 tablespoon each).
– Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten it into a thin circle (about 3 inches in diameter).
– Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each circle.
– Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges together to seal, pleating if desired.

4. **Cook the Dumplings:**
– Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
– Arrange the dumplings in the skillet in a single layer, without touching.
– Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes.
– Carefully add water to the skillet (it will steam), then cover with a lid.
– Steam the dumplings until the water has evaporated and the dumplings are cooked through, about 5 minutes.

5. **Prepare the Dipping Sauce:**
– In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Add sugar and chili flakes if desired.

6. **Serve:**
