Time 35m

Yield 24 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce
1 teaspoon hot chili oil
1/4 lb ground pork
2 ounces uncooked shrimp, shelled, deveined, and finely chopped
1 egg white
1/4 cup minced water chestnut
2 tablespoons minced Chinese celery
1 teaspoon minced cilantro leaf
1/2 teaspoon minced ginger
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon sesame oil
1 dash white pepper
24 dumpling wrappers (potsticker)
3 tablespoons cooking oil
1/2-2/3 cup chicken broth or 1/2-2/3 cup water

Steps:

  • To make the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, chili-garlic sauce and hot chili oil. Mix well and reserve.
  • To make the filling: In a large bowl, combine, the pork, shrimp, egg white, water chestnuts, celery, cilantro, ginger, sugar, salt and sesame oil. Season with a little pepper and mix, stirring rapidly in 1 direction until the mixture is well combined and spongy.
  • To make the potstickers: Working in batches, lay 4 potsticker wrappers on a clean surface. Keep the remaining wrappers covered with plastic wrap to prevent drying. Put a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of each of the 4 wrappers. Brush the edges with water. Fold the wrappers in half over the filling, pinching the edges together to form semi-circles. Put the potstickers on a baking sheet seam-side up and cover with a clean towel. Repeat until all the potstickers have been formed.
  • To cook the potstickers: Heat a large skillet over medium. Add about 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is hot add half the potstickers, seam-side up. Cook the potstckers until the bottoms are golden and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add 1/3 cup broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the cooked potstickers to a platter. Repeat, cooking the remaining potstickers.
  • Serve the potstickers warm accompanied by the dipping sauce.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more if needed and for dusting
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup boiling water
1 pound ground chicken
1/3 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 scallions, finely chopped
Freshly ground black pepper
Flavorless oil, for frying
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 scallion, finely chopped
A pinch of crushed dried red pepper

Steps:

  • For the dough: Combine the flour and salt in a large heatsafe bowl. Slowly pour in the boiling water while stirring, until you have a coarse meal mixture. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water to form a dough.
  • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes, adding more flour as necessary, until the dough is smooth and slightly sticky. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let sit for 20 minutes.
  • For the filling: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chicken broth, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, salt, scallions and a bunch of turns of pepper.
  • To assemble the dumplings, divide the dough into 24 balls. Roll them out into 4-inch circles, flouring the surface as needed. Place 1 tablespoon filling in the center of each and fold in half to make a half-moon shape, pleating the edges to seal well.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Heat a thin layer of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Boil the dumplings in batches for 4 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon, allowing excess water to drip off, then transfer to the hot oil (be careful because this step can get spitty). Cook until the dumplings are browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel and let cool slightly. Alternatively, to steam the dumplings, line a bamboo steamer with blanched cabbage and steam over boiling water until the filling is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • For the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, scallion and red pepper.
  • Serve the dumplings with the dipping sauce

Tips:

  • Choose the right wonton wrappers: Look for thin and pliable wrappers that won't tear easily. You can find them in the Asian section of most grocery stores.
  • Prepare the filling in advance: This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the potstickers.
  • Don't overfill the potstickers: Too much filling will make them difficult to seal and they may burst during cooking.
  • Seal the potstickers tightly: Use your fingers or a fork to press the edges of the wrappers together firmly. This will prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Cook the potstickers in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan, or they won't cook evenly.
  • Serve the potstickers with your favorite dipping sauce: The spicy dipping sauce in this recipe is a great option, but you can also use soy sauce, vinegar, or chili sauce.

Conclusion:

Potstickers are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or snack. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give potstickers a try!
