PERFECT POT STICKERS

Steps:
- Place ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, 2 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon soy sauce, sesame oil, and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Top with chopped green cabbage. Mix with fork until thoroughly combined. Tamp down lightly; cover with plastic. Refrigerate until chilled, about an hour.
- Place flour and kosher salt in a mixing bowl. Slowly pour in hot water. Stir with a wooden spoon until mixture forms a shaggy dough. Flour your hands and transfer dough to a work surface. Knead dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. If dough seems too sticky, sprinkle with a bit more flour, about 3 to 5 minutes. Wrap dough ball in plastic, and let it rest about 30 minutes.
- When dough has rested, divide into 4 equal pieces. Cover 3 pieces with a dish cloth while you work the first piece. Roll into a small log about the thickness of a thumb, about 3/4 inch. Divide each log into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin 3 1/2-inch circle on a lightly floured surface to form the pot sticker wrappers. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
- Lightly moisten the edges of a wrapper with your wet finger. Place a small scoop of the ground pork mixture onto the center of a wrapper. Fold up the 2 sides and pinch together in the center. Pinch together the remaining edges, forming "pleats" along one side. Tap the pot sticker on the work surface to slightly flatten the bottom; form a slight curve in it so it stands upright in the pan. Transfer to a well-floured plate. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
- Mix together seasoned rice vinegar and soy sauce in a small mixing bowl for the dipping sauce.
- Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Place about 6 or 7 pot stickers in the hot oil, flat side down. Cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drizzle in water and quickly cover the pan; steam for 3 minutes. Uncover; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until water evaporates and bottoms are browned and crunchy, 1 or 2 minutes. Transfer to a warm serving dish. Repeat with remaining pot stickers. Serve with dipping sauce.

PORK GYOZA (POT STICKER DUMPLINGS)
These fried, then steamed, dumplings are incredibly morish- I have eaten 12 and looked for more! The portion below makes about 45-50 dumplings. I normally freeze half of the mixture. It never stays in the freezer too long! If you have ginger oil, add it to the frying oil for extra flavour.

Steps:
- Mix the pork, spring onions, ginger, egg, chili sauce, soy sauce and seasame oil in a food processor. This is your dumpling filling.
- Wet the edges of the dumpling wrappers with water, put a dollop of filling in the center and press and fold the edges together to seal.
- Heat the vegetable oil for frying- you can also add a few drops of ginger and sesame oil to this for extra flavour. About 2 tablespoons in total is ample.
- Fry about 12 dumplings at a time in the oil, turning to brown. When they have been frying for about 2 minutes, add 0.5 cup of water to the pan and cook until the water is absorbed. I normally cover the pan for the first two minutes of this cooking time to ensure they are well steamed.
- Remove and served with the dipping sauce.
- For the sauce:.
- Combine the sauce ingredients and garnish with the chopped ginger.

Tips:

- Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to experiment with different vegetables in your gyoza filling. Some good options include cabbage, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, and green onions.
- Make sure the filling is well-seasoned: Use a combination of soy sauce, oyster sauce, ginger, and garlic to season the filling. You can also add a pinch of sugar or chili powder to taste.
- Don't overfill the gyoza wrappers: Too much filling will make the gyoza difficult to fold and seal.
- Cook the gyoza until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy texture.
