Pot Stickers

Filling

  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 1/2 cup cabbage, shredded / finely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tbsp ginger, finely minced
  • 1/2 cup green onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp + 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Pinch cayenne pepper

Dough

  • 12 oz pre-made wonton wraps (Nasoya at Kroger)

Dipping Sauce

  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

Combine filling ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Wet the edges of a wonton wrap. Spoon filling into middle of the wrap. Close wrap around filling and seal the edges by crimping with a fork or pinching.

For frying the wontons, use a medium/large pan with a lid. Heat pan on medium heat with light layer of canola oil. Place ~6 pot stickers in pan with flat sides down. Fry for 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water to pan and immediately cover. Steam for 3 minutes. Remove lid and continue to cook until water is evaporated and bottom of pot stickers is browned and crunchy. Repeat with remaining pot stickers.

Serve with rice and dipping sauce.
