Ingredients
Instructions
- Prep Vegetables: Finely chop nira, cabbage, and shiitake mushrooms in a food processor, transfer to a bowl, mix with salt, and leave it for 10 minutes.
- Make the Filling: Wrap the chopped vegetables in a paper towel and squeeze to remove excess water. Add the vegetables, potato starch, garlic ginger soy sauce to a large bowl and mix everything well until thoroughly combined.
- Wrap: Place the gyoza wrapper on your palm and place 1-2 teaspoons of the filling. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold it in half, and then create pleats on one side. Place the gyoza on your palm or cutting board, hold the rim, and lightly press it to make the bottom of the dumpling flat.
- Cook Gyoza: Add sesame oil to a frying pan and heat it on medium heat, then place gyoza one by one. Add 1/4 cup of hot water, put the lid on, and steam for 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Add Sesame Oil: Open the lid, let the water evaporate, add some sesame oil around the frying pan, and cook for one minute until golden brown.
- Serve: Turn off the heat, place a plate over the gyoza, and turn the frying pan over.
Notes
- Storage: They will last in the fridge for a day. You can also freeze before cooking. Place gyoza side-by-side on a tray, cover it with plastic wrap, and keep it in the freezer. Once they get frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag. They will last in the freezer for one month.
- Substitute: You can substitute potato starch with corn starch. You can substitute nira with scallions (green onion).
- Remove moisture from vegetables thoroughly with paper towels to make them easier to wrap.
- If you have time, you can refrigerate the filling for one hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Once you wrap the vegetable filling, cook the gyoza immediately or cover them with plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.
- Please prepare hot water before you cook. This will allow you to steam-fry without lowering the temperature, resulting in a fluffy finish.
