Take a wok, put in a tablespoon of oil, the spinach and mushroom mixture, followed by the garlic, ginger, chilli paste, mushroom-oyster sauce and corn flour. Sprinkle the salt and pepper to taste. Add the water. Cook until the water dries, and keep aside.
To make the dough, take a large bowl, mix in all the ingredients and knead for 5 minutes. Cover and rest the dough for half an hour. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and flatten each ball with a rolling pin. Stuff the flattened balls with around 15g of the above mixture. Bunch the edges to close around the stuffing and make a dumpling. Steam the dumplings in a microwave or over the flame in a pressure cooker for approximately 5 minutes.
