Fun guo looks very similar to har gaw (shrimp dumplings) in Cantonese-style dim sum.

Teochew cuisine

In the Chaozhou dialect of Min Nan, the dumplings are called hung gue (), but they are more widely known by their Cantonese name. They are also eaten in non-Chaozhou regions of Guangdong.

The fillings of Chaozhou fun guo are peanuts, jícama, leaf celery (唐芹), sweet preserved radish, chopped fresh garlic chives, minced pork and dried shrimps.

Hawaiian cuisine

In Hawaii, fun guo is known as pepeiao, the Hawaiian word for ear, because it resembles an ear.
