Ingredients

• 250 grams Plant-based ground beef
• 150 grams Green cabbage
• 1 medium, grated Carrot
• 3 stalks, finely chopped Green onion
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 tablespoon, grated Ginger
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 30 pieces Gyoza wrappers
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 100 milliliters Water

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the cabbage and place it in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the grated carrot, chopped green onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the bowl.

Step 3

Mix in the plant-based ground beef, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.

Step 4

Take a gyoza wrapper and place about one teaspoon of the filling mixture in the center.

Step 5

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water and fold it over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges together, pleating one side as you seal it.

Step 6

Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 7

Heat one tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 8

Place about half of the gyozas in the skillet, flat side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 9

Add 50 milliliters of water to the skillet, cover immediately, and reduce the heat to low. Steam for 5-6 minutes until the water has evaporated.

Step 10

Remove the lid and let the gyozas crisp up for another minute.

Step 11

Repeat the cooking process with the remaining gyozas.

Step 12

Serve the vegetarian beef gyoza hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
