Ingredients

• 24 pieces Gyoza wrappers
• 250 grams Ground pork
• 100 grams Cabbage
• 2 stalks Green onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ginger
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 100 grams Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Finely shred the cabbage and squeeze out excess moisture. Chop the green onions, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine ground pork, cabbage, green onions, garlic, and ginger. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3

Grate the cheddar cheese. Divide into 24 small portions to be used for stuffing.

Step 4

Take one gyoza wrapper and lay it flat on a workspace. Place a spoonful of the pork filling in the center, then add a portion of cheese.

Step 5

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water. Fold the wrapper over, pressing the edges to form pleats and seal the gyoza into a half-moon shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers.

Step 6

Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place gyoza in the skillet, seam-side up, and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.

Step 7

Carefully add water to the skillet and immediately cover with a lid. Steam the gyoza for about 5 minutes, until the water evaporates.

Step 8

Remove the lid and cook for an additional 2 minutes to crisp up the bottom again.

Step 9

Serve the cheese gyoza hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
