Air fry at 190°C for 8–10 minutes until golden underneath and lightly crisp around the edges.

Remove the dumplings carefully and allow them to sit for 1 minute before serving.
Serve immediately with the dipping sauce alongside.
Lad Tip: Chen Wei says the first dumpling always burns your mouth because you're impatient and refuse to wait. After testing this extensively across Beijing, we can confirm the science appears sound.
