Potstickers/Dumplings

Directions

1. Cabbage should be salted for 30 minutes then rinsed with water. Then use hands to squeeze out as much water as possible. This will increase the crunch. 

2. Mix the filling in a large bowl.

3. Add flour to a small bowl of water. Then use the flour water to fold the dumplings. 

4. Follow the pictures below to fold the dumplings. Don't worry about getting perfect folds. As long as the edges are tight, it'll be just fine. To prevent the dumplings from sticking to each other, add extra flour or oil to the plate.

5. Boil (for 10 minutes on medium heat), steam, or pan fry the dumplings. 

I prefer to pan fry the dumplings to make potstickers. 

1. Add one cup of water and some cooking oil. 

2. Add all the dumplings into a pan or pot. 

3. Close the lid and it steam for 10 minutes.

4. Then open the lid and let the remaining water evaporate for the crust to develop. Will take about 2 minutes.
