These dumplings have a hearty filling that's easy to make and a dipping sauce that's too irresistible to pass up. I prepare them in advance and freeze them. -Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

Ingredients

4 green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1 pound ground beef
48 pot sticker or gyoza wrappers
DIPPING SAUCE:
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 garlic clove, minced

Steps:

(Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.), Moisten wrapper edges with water. Fold wrapper over filling; seal edges, pleating the front side several times to form a pleated pouch. Stand pot stickers on a work surface to flatten bottoms; curve slightly to form crescent shapes, if desired., In a 6-qt. stockpot, place a greased steamer basket over 3/4 in. of water. In batches, place dumplings in basket. Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a low boil; steam, covered, 4-5 minutes or until cooked through., Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients. Serve with dumplings.
