When all the dumplings were ready, we tried boiling some of them. But none of us 4 them until we smelled something burning. I quickly opened the lid of the pan. To my surprise, the water was so little that the dumplings at the bottom were burning.
This time, I stood beside the pan and watched it 5 and patiently. The water boiled. I dropped a plate of dumplings into the pan at a time. Then I covered it with the lid, to wait for the water to boil once more. About two minutes later, all the dumplings rose and floated 6 of the water. I knew they were well cooked. I took them out on a large plate. Soon we ate them up.
