Combine shrimp, ground pork, green onions, soy sauce and ginger in a bowl. Place 1 tsp mixture into center of each wrapper.

Bring 2 points of long edge together, folding 1 point over other to overlap, and press to seal. As each dumpling is shaped, place on a tray lined with baking paper.
To make broth, place stock, soy sauce, ginger and 2 cups water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Add mushrooms and dumplings and simmer gently for 3-4 mins, until dumplings float.
