Ingredients

• 250 grams Ground pork
• 200 grams Chinese cabbage
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Ginger
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon White pepper
• 30 pieces Round dumpling wrappers
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 100 milliliters Water
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (for dipping)
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar (for dipping)

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the Chinese cabbage and place it in a bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and let it sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Then, squeeze out the liquid and set the cabbage aside.

Step 2

Mince the garlic cloves and ginger, and finely chop the green onions.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, Chinese cabbage, garlic, ginger, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 4

Lay out one dumpling wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of the wrapper. Wet the edges of the wrapper with water using your finger, fold it in half, and pleat the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Arrange the pot stickers in the skillet in a single layer, pleat-side up.

Step 6

Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 7

Carefully add water to the skillet and immediately cover it with a lid to steam the pot stickers. Cook for another 6-7 minutes or until the water has evaporated and the pot stickers are cooked through.

Step 8

Uncover the skillet and let the pot stickers crisp up for 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the pot stickers from the skillet and serve immediately with a dipping sauce made by mixing soy sauce and rice vinegar.
