Jamaican Beef Dumplings

This is a great recipe I want to try, with a very sad postscript. Gourmet magazine is going to stop publishing after November, after publishing for 68 years. The remainder of people's subscriptions will be fulfilled by Bon Appetit.

Here's the recipe in case the link stops working. Gourmet says their recipes will still be available on Epicurious.

1/2 cup finely chopped scallion
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
4 cups vegetable oil, divided
1/2 lb ground beef
2 tablespoons fine dry bread crumbs
Hot sauce (preferably Jamaican)
About 30 dumpling or wonton wrappers
Cook scallion, onion, curry powder, and thyme in 1 1/2 Tbsp oil with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in beef and bread crumbs and cook until meat is just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Season with hot sauce. Cool.
Put a rounded tsp filling in center of a wrapper. Lightly brush edge of wrapper with water, then fold in half (diagonally if square) and press to seal. Form remaining dumplings.
Heat 1 inch oil to 350°F in a 12-inch skillet. Fry dumplings in 3 batches, turning once or twice, until golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch.
