- 180 g arugula
- 150 g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 60 g green onions, sliced
- 60 g onion, thinly sliced

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine tamari or soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, and chili crisp. Gradually whisk in water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dressing reaches desired consistency. Set aside.
- Place arugula, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, green onions, and onion into a large salad bowl.
- Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Arrange frozen dumplings in a single layer and cook for 3–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are crisp and golden brown.

- Immediately portion the salad onto plates. For added spiciness, drizzle with extra chili oil if desired.

- You can adjust the amount of chili oil according to your spice preference.
- This salad is best served immediately to enjoy the crispy texture of the dumplings.
