Vegetarian Pot Stickers Recipes

VEGAN POTSTICKERS (PAN-FRIED DUMPLINGS)

Steps:

• To make dough: combine the flour and salt together in a medium bowl. Make a well in the center, and gradually add the boiling water, stirring with a spoon until the mixture forms clumps. Cover and let rest for five minutes. Add 1 tbsp cold water and knead into a ball, then cover and let rest as you prepare the filling.
• To make filling: heat oil in a large work or skillet over medium high heat and stir-fry ginger and onions until translucent. Add in chopped mushrooms and stir-fry for another 3-5 minutes until liquid is evaporated, then add cabbage and carrots and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until most of the liquid from the vegetables is released. Add chives, wine, soy sauce, sugar, white pepper, and salt, and cook one more minute, then remove from heat. Taste and add more salt or sesame oil as necessary (you want the filling to be quite salty/well-seasoned, as the flavor mellows in the dumplings). Place filling in the fridge to cool.
• To make the dumplings, divide the dough into two portions, and knead well. Roll each portion into a 1 inch rope, and cut into small tablespoon-sized pieces, flattening each piece with the palm of your hand. Dust the working surface with flour and roll each piece out into a flat disc. Add a generous amount of filling and pleat the edges, pinching tightly to seal.
• Heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick pan over medium high heat, then place the dumplings in the pan and allow to fry for 2 minutes. Pour 1/4 cup (or a thin layer) of water into the pan, cover, and reduce heat to medium-low. Allow dumplings to steam until the water has evaporated, then remove the cover, increase heat to medium-high and fry for a few more minutes, until the bottoms of the dumplings are golden brown and crisp. Serve immediately.

VEGETABLE POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add mushrooms and shallots, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in cabbage and carrots until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Let cool completely. In a large bowl, combine mushroom mixture, water chestnuts, cilantro, egg, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste. To assemble the potstickers, place wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the mushroom mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal.* Heat remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add potstickers in a single layer and cook until beginning to crisp on the bottom, about 2-3 minutes. Working quickly, add 1/4 cup water; cover and cook until liquid has evaporated and bottoms of dumplings are crisp and golden, about 3-5 minutes. Serve immediately.

VEGETARIAN POT STICKERS WITH HOMEMADE DUMPLING WRAPPERS

Steps:

• Make the hot water dough: In a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, combine the flour, salt and two-thirds of the boiling water. Mix on medium speed while slowly adding the remaining water until well mixed and a ball is formed and the dough is not too hot to handle, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a little flour if it gets too wet.
• On a floured surface, knead the dough until it becomes a smooth, elastic ball. Place back in the bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rest for at least 1 hour.
• Make the dumpling wrappers: Working on a floured surface with floured hands, roll out the dough to form a long 'noodle', 1-inch in diameter. Cut 1/2-inch pieces and turn them over so the cut sides are facing up. Flatten with your palm and roll out thin using a rolling pin. The dumpling wrapper should end up about 3 inches in diameter.
• Make the vegetarian filling: Heat the oil in a wok or large saute pan over medium-high heat, then saute the onions and season with a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon white pepper. Add the ginger and mushrooms and saute 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cabbage, carrots and chives and season to taste. When the mixture is soft, place in a colander to drain. Add the cilantro and sesame oil when mixture is cooled. Check for seasoning.
• Make the dumplings: Place a small mound of filling in the middle of the wrapper. (Be very careful not to touch the edges with the filling as this will impede proper sealing of the dumplings. Nothing is worse than dumplings breaking during cooking.) Lightly brush the top half edge with water and fold the wrapper in half to form a half moon shape. Starting on one end fold/pinch the wrapper tightly together. Proceed with this fold/pinch method until the dumpling is completely sealed. There will be approximately 7 to 10 folds per dumpling. Rest the dumplings with the folded edges straight up.
• Cook the dumplings: In a nonstick saute pan coated well with 1 tablespoon oil, place the pot stickers flat side down, turn the heat to medium-high and cook until the bottom is browned. Have pan cover ready, add 1/4 inch of water to the bottom of the pan and cover immediately. Be careful, the liquid will splatter! The water will steam the pot stickers. Check them in 5 minutes as more water may be needed. (Ideally, you add about 1/4 inch layer of liquid, depending on the size of the pan.) The trick here is that once the dumplings are firm and fully cooked the water will evaporate and the bottoms will crisp-up again. You can listen to the point no water is left, that is when you can take the lid off.
• Make the dim sum dipper: Combining all ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Serve with the pot stickers.

VEGETABLE POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Toss the cabbage with 1/4 teaspoon salt and let stand for 10 minutes. Add the cilantro, ginger, sesame oil, scallions and garlic and stir to combine.
• Fill a small bowl with water. Lay a gyoza wrapper on a work surface and spoon a scant tablespoon of the cabbage mixture into the center. Moisten a finger with water and rub it along the edge of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over to make a triangle or half-moon shape, then seal with your fingers, trying to push out any air as you go. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Arrange the potstickers in the skillet in concentric circles and cook until the bottoms are light golden, about 2 minutes. Carefully add 1/4 cup water to the pan; cover and cook until the liquid has evaporated, the wrapper dough is tender, and the undersides of the potstickers are golden brown, about 6 minutes.
• Transfer the potstickers to a serving platter, crispy-side up, and serve with ponzu sauce.

PERFECT POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Combine the first 11 ingredients in a medium-size mixing bowl (pork through cayenne). Set aside.
• To form the dumplings, remove 1 wonton wrapper from the package, covering the others with a damp cloth. Brush 2 of the edges of the wrapper lightly with water. Place 1/2 rounded teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold over, seal edges, and shape as desired. Set on a sheet pan and cover with a damp cloth. Repeat procedure until all of the filling is gone.
• Heat a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat. Brush with vegetable oil once hot. Add 8 to 10 potstickers at a time to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, without touching. Once the 2 minutes are up, gently add 1/3 cup chicken stock to the pan, turn the heat down to low, cover, and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove wontons to a heatproof platter and place in the warm oven. Clean the pan in between batches by pouring in water and allowing the pan to deglaze. Repeat until all the wontons are cooked. Serve immediately.

VEGGIE POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the leeks and garlic and cook until leeks begin to soften, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cabbage, vinegar, soy sauce, and ginger and cook, stirring, until cabbage is soft, about 3 to 4 minutes more. Remove from the heat and stir in the carrot. Allow the filling to cool.
• Transfer cabbage mixture to a mixing bowl and work together until fully incorporated. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• To make the potstickers, lay a wonton wrapper on the work surface and put about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center. Dip your finger in a little water and wet the edges of the wonton wrapper; this will help the potsticker seal when cooking. Bring the outside edges of the wonton wrapper together over the filling and press it together to form a pouch. Continue with the remaining wrappers and filling.
• To cook the potstickers, heat the remaining oil in a very large skillet over high heat. Place all of the potstickers upright in the pan and cook, without disturbing them, until browned on the bottom, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan and immediately cover. Allow the potstickers to steam for about 3 minutes, then remove the skillet lid. Continue cooking until the water is completely evaporated.
• Transfer to a platter and serve with the dipping sauce.
• Stir all ingredients together in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Yield: about 1/3 cup
