Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground pork
- 200 grams Napa cabbage
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon White pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 50 pieces Potsticker wrappers
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 250 milliliters Water
Instructions
Finely chop the Napa cabbage and place it in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, mix, and let stand for 10 minutes to draw out moisture.
Meanwhile, mince the garlic and ginger, and thinly slice the green onions.
After 10 minutes, squeeze the cabbage to remove excess moisture and transfer it to a dry clean bowl.
Combine the squeezed cabbage with the ground pork, minced garlic, minced ginger, sliced green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, white pepper, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Place a potsticker wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of filling onto the center of the wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water. Fold the wrapper in half to form a semicircle, pressing the edges together to seal. You can pleat the edges for a more traditional look.
Repeat the process with the remaining filling and wrappers.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the potstickers flat side down in the skillet, making sure they are not touching. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully add 125 milliliters of water to the skillet. Be cautious as it may splatter.
Cover the skillet with a lid, allowing the steam to cook the potstickers until the water evaporates, about 5-6 minutes.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms again.
Transfer cooked potstickers to a plate. Repeat with the remaining uncooked potstickers and remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and water as needed.
Serve the potstickers hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
