Attached the pasta maker, let the dough through the pasta maker to flatten it, fold it into half, let it through the pasta maker again. Repeat the steps until the dough becomes smooth. (把面团压平器装上,撒上一点面粉。然后,放入面团。当面团出来时,将它折叠成半,再次放入压平器里。每过三次,调转旋钮从大数到小数,重复步骤直到面团变得滑顺。)

On a piece wanton skin, scoop about a tsp of filling and place in the centre of the wrapper. Wet the sides of the wanton skin, fold and gather the sides. Finish by pressing hard on the gathering point to seal. Continue with the rest of the filling. (在一片云吞皮上,舀起一茶匙馅,放在皮的中心。沾湿皮的两侧,折叠并聚集侧面,密封完成。重复步骤,直到馅料包完。)
Step 3: Prepare the noodle seasoning(准备调味料)
In a serving bowl, pour in fried shallot oil, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce and sambal chilli paste. Mix well and set aside. (在一个碗里,倒入葱油,酱青,蚝油,酱油和三巴辣椒酱。混合好,放在一边。)
