Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Shrimp (peeled, deveined, and finely chopped)
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (finely grated)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic (minced)
- 1.5 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 30 pieces Dumpling wrappers
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 120 milliliters Water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped shrimp, green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Mix well until the filling is thoroughly blended.
Set up a workstation with a small dish of water and the dumpling wrappers. Take one wrapper and place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center.
Dip your fingertip in water and run it along the outer edge of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half to create a semi-circle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Pleat the edges for a decorative finish if desired. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the pot stickers in the pan in a single layer, flat side down. Cook them undisturbed for 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully add half of the water to the pan (watch for steam) and immediately cover with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium and let the pot stickers steam for 5-6 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.
Remove the lid, drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil around the edges of the pan, and cook an additional 1-2 minutes to crisp the bottoms further.
Transfer the pot stickers to a serving plate and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batch, if necessary.
Serve hot with soy sauce, chili oil, or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
