In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, chopped green onions, grated ginger, and low-fat mozzarella cheese. Mix well.
Add the low sodium soy sauce and sesame oil to the vegetable and cheese mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
Lay out the gyoza wrappers on a clean, dry surface. Place approximately one teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper.
Using your finger, wet the edge of each wrapper with a little water. Fold the wrapper in half to create a half-moon shape and press the edges together to seal. Ensure there are no air pockets.
Lightly coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
Place the gyoza in the skillet, flat side down, in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully add 100 ml of water to the skillet and cover immediately with a lid. Steam the gyoza for about 5 minutes or until the wrappers become translucent and the water has evaporated.
Remove the lid and let the gyoza cook for another minute to re-crisp the bottoms.
Transfer the gyoza to a serving plate and repeat with the remaining gyoza, if necessary.
Serve warm with additional soy sauce for dipping, if desired.
