Chinese Dumplings Potstickers Recipe


Chinese Dumplings Potstickers Recipe
I so like the potstickers in Chinese cooking but I steer away from pork. If you use turkey sausage it is just as good without all of the calories. There is a vegan recipe too.

Ingredients
  • Dumpling Dough:
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • **************************
  • Filling:
  • 8 ounces celery cabbage (Napa cabbage)
  • 3 tsp salt, divided
  • 1 pound lean ground pork
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions, with tops
  • 1 TB white wine
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Dash white pepper
  • ***********************************
  • Dipping Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Other:
  • 2-4 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions
  1. Cut the cabbage across into thin strips.
  2. Mix with 2 teaspoons salt and set aside for 5 minutes.
  3. Squeeze out the excess moisture.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the celery cabbage, pork, green onions, wine, cornstarch, the remaining 1 teaaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and the white pepper.
  5. In a bowl, mix the flour and 1 cup boiling water until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly flour surface about 5 minutes, or until smooth.
  6. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a roll 12 inches long and cut each roll into 1/2-inch slices.
  7. Roll 1 slice of dough into a 3-inch circle and place 1 tablespoon pork mixture in the center of the circle.
  8. Lift up the edges of the circle and pinch 5 pleats up to create a pouch to encase the mixture. Pinch the top together.
  9. Repeat with the remaining slices of dough and filling.
  10. Heat a wok or nonstick skillet until very hot.
  11. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, tilting the wok to coat the sides. If using a nonstick skillet, add 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil.
  12. Place 12 dumplings in a single layer in the wok and fry 2 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
  13. Add 1/2 cup water. Cover and cook 6 to 7 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
  14. Repeat with the remaining dumplings.
  15. To make a dipping sauce, in a small bowl, mix the soy sauce with 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Serve with the dumplings.
