Ingredients

  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 5 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 2 tsp grated ginger
  • 3 tbs fish sauce
  • 2 tbs lite soy sauce
  • 3 tbs sesame oil
  • 4 tbs corn starch
  • 1 tsp white pepper
  • 1 lb lean ground pork
  • 1/2 cup shrimp minced
  • 2/3 cup napa cabbage finely chopped or use a food processor
  • 150 ml chicken stock
  • 3 tbs oil
  • 50 gyoza pot sticker wrappers

Instructions

  • In a bowl, mix all the ingredients except chicken stock, oil, and gyoza wrappers.
  • On dry surface, lay out 1 gyoza wrapper, keeping remaining wrappers covered with dampened cloth or paper towel. Spoon 1 tsp filling into center, then moisten halfway around edge with wet finger. Fold moisture-free half of wrapper over moistened half to form open half-moon shape. (See video for more details).
  • In a lidded, non-stick skillet over moderately high heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking, then arrange pot stickers in tight circular pattern. Cook uncovered, until bottoms are pale golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add chicken stock, then cover tightly with lid and cook until liquid has evaporated and bottoms of dumplings are crisp and golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove lid and cook, shaking skillet to loosen pot stickers, until steam dissipates, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove skillet and serve.
