2 to 3 liters canola oil, as needed for deep frying
1 tablespoon grape seed oil
3/4 pound ground pork

3 scallions, white and tender green parts only, sliced thinly on the bias
1 tablespoon peeled minced fresh ginger root

Spoon off any excess fat from the pan and add the scallions, ginger, and soy sauce. Cook until flavors are well integrated. Remove from heat and let rest.
  • Create a slurry in a small bowl by gradually whisking 2 tablespoons water into the cornstarch.
  • Spoon 1 teaspoon of the cooked pork mixture onto each of the wontons. Fold each over to enclose and seal the edges shut with the cornstarch slurry.

  • Serve warm with soy sauce.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound ground pork
4 cloves minced garlic
½ cup finely chopped green onions
3 tablespoons very finely minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 ½ cups finely chopped green cabbage
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup hot water, about 130 -150 F (55-65 C)
¼ cup seasoned rice vinegar
¼ cup soy sauce
6 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying, or as needed - divided
8 tablespoons water for steaming, divided

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.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

gyoza skins
200 g ground pork
1/3 cup boiled and chopped cabbage
2 tablespoons chopped leeks
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/2 teaspoon grated gingerroot
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sake
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • First combine the meat and the seasonings. Mix it with your HANDS. This is important. Then add in the rest of the vegetables. Mix it very very well WITH YOUR HANDS till it changes texture and cannot fall apart.
  • Place a teaspoonful of filling in a wrapper and put water along the edge of the wrapper. Make a semicircle, gathering the front side of the wrapper and sealing the top.
  • Put the gyozas into a pan and fill the pan with BOILING WATER. The water must come up to half the height of the gyozas and no higher or lower. Cover and let boil/steam for 3 minutes EXACTLY.
  • Open the lid and drain off excess water. Add vegetable oil and let it fry for only 1 and a half minutes. No longer, no shorter.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your gyoza. Look for fresh, firm vegetables and ground pork or chicken.
  • Gently mix the filling: Don't overmix the filling, as this will make the gyoza tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a thin wrapper: A thin wrapper will allow the gyoza to cook evenly and will also give you a crispy texture.
  • Pleat the gyoza carefully: Pleating the gyoza properly will help to keep the filling inside and will also make them look more attractive.
  • Cook the gyoza in a hot pan: A hot pan will help to sear the gyoza and give them a crispy texture.
  • Serve the gyoza with your favorite dipping sauce: Gyoza can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as soy sauce, vinegar, or chili sauce.

Conclusion:

Gyoza are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. With a little practice, you can make perfect gyoza at home. Just remember to use high-quality ingredients, mix the filling gently, use a thin wrapper, pleat the gyoza carefully, cook them in a hot pan, and serve them with your favorite dipping sauce.
