I made potstickers tonight....

[Scarpozzi]

Filling:
1 pound of groud pork
4 medium-sized green onions, minced
1 teaspoon of ground ginger
4 teaspoons soy sauce
3/4 tsp salt
3 cups of minced cabbage
1 clove of minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

--------------------
Grab some Gyoza wrappers, but get 2 packs or more....I have half a pound of pork + the rest of the ingredients in a bowl in my fridge.

All you do is put about a teaspoon of the filling in one of the wrappers and seal the edge with water. Push out any air and make as many dumplings as you want.

Put some oil in a skillet, fry them up, 12 at a time for 5 minutes without moving them....Add 1/2 cup of water and cover immediately. Lower heat to simmer for 10 minutes until water is absorbed. Then move the heat back up until they get crispy...3-4 minutes.

GOOOOOD stuff. My wife is going to have me make these often from the reviews tonight. They taste just like the ones you buy....and they are CHEAP!

I made them about a month ago. So delicious. But it took way too long. At least an hour.

I threw the "minced" ingredients in my food processor. All I had to do was mix them in with the rest of the ingredients and the filling was done. Literally took 5 minutes.

Putting everything together took a while, but I laid them out 8 at a time and was able to make a few cookie sheets full of pot stickers quickly. After they were made, I put the cookie sheets in the freezer to freeze the extras. You can buy them at Samsclub at the price of 72 for $10.

I figure a pound of meat will make about that. I just need more wrappers. I'll be finishing out everything tomorrow and will be eating these things while I watch the Super Bowl. 😀

this was a bitch

pie is just as good, and much easier 😉

you should just make hella them and freeze them... also great with wontons...

by the way, if you make the leftover meat into balls and fry them, and then make some fried rice or have some garlic onion pasta... yum...

i just buy the ling ling brand from costco, they have nice thin flour wraps so they're more like gyoza instead of the chinese potstickers.

i'm chinese but i'll take the japanese version anytime, that's why i always get them when going to the sushi bar 🙂

..would it work wit turkey??

My mother used to make those for herself when I still lived with my parents. They would make the house smell so bad I would have to leave for a couple hours and let the house air out.

I don't have a food processor. I did everything by hand and I used all fresh ingredients. I made the mistake of freezing them in ziplock bags. They all were naturally leaking (the sauce/marinade plus the egg wash, hard to keep them clean and dry) and they all froze into a huge inseparable lump 🙁
