Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, shredded cabbage, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, black pepper, and salt. Mix everything together thoroughly until well combined.

  2. To assemble the pot stickers, place a small spoonful of the pork and vegetable mixture in the center of a dumpling wrapper.

  3. Dip your finger in water and run it along the edge of the wrapper.

  4. Fold the wrapper in half over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal.

  5. Pleat the edges of the wrapper by folding and pressing together to create a decorative border.

  6. Repeat the process until all the filling is used up.

  7. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil.

  8. Once the oil is hot, place the pot stickers in the skillet, ensuring they are not touching each other.

  9. Cook the pot stickers for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

  10. Carefully pour in 1/4 cup of water into the skillet and immediately cover with a lid.

  11. Let the pot stickers steam for about 5-6 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.

  12. Remove the lid and let the pot stickers cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the bottoms are crisp again.

  13. Transfer the cooked pot stickers to a serving plate.

  14. Serve hot with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes.
