In China, these fried dumplings are called "Meat Hidden in Gold Coins." A lot of dishes in Southeast Asia carry a symbolic meaning, and these "gold coins" are meant to bring wealth to everyone who eats them. Put the flour in a bowl, pour in the boiling water, and stir with a fork. Gradually add the cold water and mix until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a floured board and knead about five minutes until smooth. In a separate bowl, make the filling: combine the ground meat with finely chopped green onion and stir in the seasonings (mixed together first). Mix the filling thoroughly. On the floured board, roll the dough into a log and cut it into 18 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a round about 4 inches (10 cm) across and 5 mm thick. Place a tablespoon of filling in the center of each round. Pinch the edges of the dough together in the middle, then shape each dumpling into a round coin. Heat the oil in a wide skillet until very hot, and fry the dumplings until golden, about 3–4 minutes per side.
