Gyoza

Savor the taste of homemade gyoza, where tender ground pork meets crisp cabbage and fragrant green onions, all wrapped in delicate dough. Perfect for a cozy weeknight dinner or a fun gathering with friends.

• 250 g ground pork
• 1 cup cabbage, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp green onions, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 pack gyoza wrappers
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• to taste salt and pepper

Method

1. 1

   In a bowl, mix the ground pork, chopped cabbage, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.

2. 2

   Take a gyoza wrapper and place about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper.

3. 3

   Wet the edges of the gyoza wrapper with a little water, fold it in half, and press to seal, forming pleats if desired.

4. 4

   Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a little sesame oil. Arrange the gyoza in the skillet without crowding.

5. 5

   Fry the gyoza for about 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

6. 6

   Add a splash of water to the pan (about 1/4 cup) and quickly cover with a lid. Steam for about 5 minutes until cooked through.

7. 7

   Remove the lid and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow any remaining water to evaporate and the bottoms to crisp up again.

8. 8

   Serve hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
