Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 30 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 200 grams Extra-firm tofu
- 1 medium, grated Carrot
- 150 grams, finely chopped Napa cabbage
- 3 stalks, finely chopped Green onions
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon, fresh grated Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
Drain the tofu and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel. Place a heavy object on top to press out excess water for about 15 minutes.
In a large bowl, crumble the pressed tofu into small pieces.
Add the grated carrot, chopped napa cabbage, green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and ground black pepper to the bowl with the tofu. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Take a single wonton wrapper and place it on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper.
Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half over the filling to form a half-moon shape, pressing the edges together to seal. You can pleat the edges for a decorative touch.
Repeat the filling and sealing process for the remaining wrappers.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Working in batches, add the pot stickers to the skillet, flat side down, in a single layer. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes.
Add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and immediately cover to steam the pot stickers. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the water has evaporated and the wrappers are tender.
Uncover the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to re-crisp the bottoms.
Remove the pot stickers from the skillet and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
