Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually add the vegetable oil and warm water, stirring until a dough forms.

2. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped chives, garlic, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, cornstarch, and vegetable oil. Mix well.

4. Divide the dough into small balls, about the size of a small egg. Roll out each ball into a thin circle.

5. Place a tablespoon of the filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, and press the edges together to seal.

6. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of the pan. When the oil is hot, add the dumplings and fry until they are golden brown and crispy.

7. Serve the pan-fried chive and pork dumplings hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
