Finely chop the green cabbage and the carrot, and mince the garlic and ginger. Thinly slice the green onions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, cabbage, carrot, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and green onions. Mix well until evenly combined.
Lay a single wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface. Add about 1 teaspoon of the pork filling to the center of the wrapper.
Lightly moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your finger or a small brush. Fold the wrapper in half to form a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Pleat the edges if desired. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the pot stickers in the skillet in a single layer, flat side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and immediately cover with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium and let the pot stickers steam for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through and most of the water has evaporated.
Remove the lid and allow the pot stickers to cook for another 1-2 minutes to re-crisp the bottoms.
Transfer the pot stickers to a serving plate and repeat the process with the remaining batch, using the remaining vegetable oil as needed.
Serve warm with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
