Mix the flour, salt, and cold water together using chopsticks or a fork until the mixture comes together into a rough dough.
Knead the dough by hand for about two minutes, pressing it down with the palm of your hand.
Cover the dough and let it rest for a few minutes to become softer and smoother.
Knead the dough again for about one minute until it is smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough and set it aside while you prepare the filling.
Combine all the filling ingredients in a bowl, then gradually mix in water or chicken broth. Stir the meat several times to achieve a tender and elastic texture.
Chop the chives into larger pieces to prevent them from breaking down into a slimy texture and developing an unpleasant smell.
Toss the chopped chives with sesame oil to keep them fresh, then gently mix them into the seasoned pork by hand, taking care not to crush the chives.
Cover the prepared filling and refrigerate it, or keep it at room temperature and use within two hours.
Roll out the dough and cut it into four or eight portions, depending on the desired size.
