The Secret To Perfect Gyoza N Pot Stickers Recipes

GYOZA ( POT STICKERS)

Steps:

• While still mostly frozen, and using a very sharp knife, mince the pork loin until it resembles ground pork.
• In a medium mixing bowl mix all ingredients until thoroughly combined.
• On a dry surface lay out a Gyoza wrapper and place a teaspoonful of pork mixture in the center. Wet just the tip of your finger and run around the edge of the wrapper. Fold over and pinch the sides together so it looks like a semi-circle.
• Repeat until the pork mixture is gone.
• In a large non-stick frying pan with a lid (I use a 4 1/2 quart Sauteusse)heat a teaspoonful of oil and place 10-12 gyoza in the pan.
• Cook for two minutes without touching them.
• Pour a half cup of water into the pan and cover immediately.
• Cook for 5-7 minutes, undisturbed, or until all water is gone.
• Remove from pan with tongs.
• Repeat with rest of gyoza.

LEMONGRASS GYOZA (POT STICKERS/DUMPLINGS)

Steps:

• Heat wok and stir-fry lemongrass, garlic, and ginger in a bit of oil for one minute. Throw in onion and miso soup and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add carrot, bean sprouts, red bell pepper, and tempeh and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring to prevent sticking.
• Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes, and maple syrup. Stir, then add cellophane noodles and mix thoroughly to coat.
• Add scallions and cook for one minute.
• Place about 1 tbsp of mixture into each wrapper, moisten edges (using soymilk or egg substitute works better than water), and seal.
• Steam for about 3 minutes.
