3. Slice the strawberries, add sugar (to taste), then place the strawberries in the center of each circle and shape them into classic dumplings. The most important thing is to tightly seal the edges of each filled dumpling. While shaping the dumplings, you can bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt; then, once ready, drop the dumplings into the boiling water.
