Instructions

Prepare the spice mixture using a mortar and pestle to crush coriander roots, black peppercorns, and garlic.
In a bowl, mix golden mountain sauce, white sugar, sesame oil, and oyster sauce until well combined.
Blend ground pork with the sauce mixture, egg, and cornstarch until smooth.
Combine this filling with the crushed spices and finely diced vegetables in a mixing bowl.
