Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground pork
• 3 pieces Green onions, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 cup Napa cabbage, finely shredded
• 0.5 cup Carrots, finely shredded
• 36 pieces Potsticker wrappers
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, minced garlic, fresh ginger, low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 2

Add the finely shredded Napa cabbage and carrots to the pork mixture and mix until evenly combined.

Step 3

On a clean work surface, lay out one potsticker wrapper. Place about a tablespoon of the pork filling in the center of the wrapper.

Step 4

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your fingertip. Fold the wrapper over to create a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal.

Step 5

Optionally, create pleats along the sealed edge for a traditional potsticker look. Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 6

In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Place potstickers in the skillet in a single layer, flat side down, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 8

Carefully add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and cover immediately to trap steam. Reduce heat to medium and let the potstickers steam for 4-5 minutes or until the water has mostly evaporated.

Step 9

Remove the lid and continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms again.

Step 10

Using a spatula, carefully transfer the cooked potstickers to a serving plate. Repeat the cooking process for the remaining potstickers.

Step 11

Serve potstickers hot with your choice of low-sodium dipping sauce.
