Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups finely shredded cabbage
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 1 cup finely chopped shiitake mushrooms
- 4 stalks finely sliced scallions
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 40 pieces wonton wrappers
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup water
- 1 small bowl dipping sauce (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, chopped mushrooms, sliced scallions, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Add soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch to the vegetable mixture. Mix well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the vegetable filling into the center of the wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your fingertip. Fold the wrapper in half to form a crescent shape, pressing the edges together to seal. Optionally pleat the edges for a decorative finish. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Arrange half of the pot stickers in the skillet, flat side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Pour 1/4 cup of water into the skillet and immediately cover with a lid. Allow the pot stickers to steam for 4-5 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.
Remove the lid and let the pot stickers cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to crisp the bottoms further. Transfer the cooked pot stickers to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining pot stickers using the additional tablespoon of vegetable oil and 1/4 cup of water.
Serve the pot stickers warm with your favorite dipping sauce on the side, if desired.
