Delicious Potstickers!

I got together with my Oki Native Sisters and we made homemade gyoza!

Everyone brought a couple ingredients each and we had a great time putting them together and of course eating them!!

They are super easy and fun to make. Something I want to do more often with my Fish Fam.

Oh so good!!!

Recipe here at Damn Delicious....

Ingredients:

-1lb. ground pork

-1 cup shredded green cabbage

-3 oz. Shitake mushroom, diced

-2 garlic cloves, pressed

-2 green onions, thinly sliced

-1 tbsp. hosin

-1 tbsp. freshly grated ginger

-2 tsp. sesame oil

-1 tsp. siracha, or more to taste

-1/4 tsp. white pepper

-36 wonton wrappers

-2 tbsp. vegetable oil Soy sauce, for serving

Directions: 

1. In a large bowl, combine pork, cabbage, mushrooms, garlic, green onions, hoisin, ginger, sesame oil, Sriracha and white pepper.
2. To assemble the dumplings, place wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add potstickers in a single layer and cook until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
4. Serve immediately with soy sauce, if desired.

Irresistible Potstickers..

 Who doesn't love jiaozi, shuǐjiǎo, guōtiē, dumplings, aka Potstickers!

My kids sure do, but have you ever made them from scratch?
It's quite the process, but very authentic and so good.

When we lived in China my oldest went to a nursery school and I was welcomed to stay too, which I did some days with my 1yr old, one day we made Jaozi all from scratch. The kids loved it. No one talked at the lunch table and they were gone before we knew it!

These however are far from homemade, they are the all famous Ling Ling Potstickers.
A easy and fast go to frozen food in our house.

I either boil them, which is super super fast and easy, or pan fry them, which isn't that much harder, but the Fish Fam certainly prefers it this way.

To do it up a bit more I chop up fresh mushrooms and green onions, then fry them in butter with some garlic and white pepper.

 Then plate it with steamed calrose rice, green beans, and dipping sauce.

Simply irresistible!

好吃得不得了 Hao chi de bu de liao!!

Jiaozi...Dumplings & Mushrooms

When we need a quick fix for dinner, we usually have a bag of Ling Ling Potsickers in the freezer.

But, just boiling them can get boring sometimes.

My family loves crispy dumplings w/ sauteed mushrooms and green onions.

They are no where near as good as the real stuff in China, but they sure are good.
