Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb ground pork (or chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a vegetarian option)

  • 2 cups finely chopped Napa cabbage or regular cabbage

  • 3 scallions, finely chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp ginger, grated

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

  • 1 tsp sugar

  • 1 package round dumpling wrappers (about 40)

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine ground meat (or tofu), cabbage, scallions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sugar. Mix well.
  • Place a dumpling wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of filling into the center.
  • Moisten the edges with water, fold in half, and pinch the edges to seal tightly. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
  • Heat 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Arrange pot stickers in a single layer, flat side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.
  • Carefully pour in 1/2 cup water and cover the skillet immediately to steam the pot stickers.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes until water evaporates and wrappers become tender.
  • Remove the lid and cook for another 1-2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms again if needed.
  • Serve hot with soy sauce, chili oil, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the dumplings to avoid bursting during cooking.
  • If you want extra crispiness, increase the initial frying time before steaming.
  • Pot stickers freeze well — freeze uncooked on a baking sheet, then transfer to a bag and cook straight from frozen.

]]> Pot stickers are a classic pan-fried dumpling with a crispy golden bottom and a juicy, flavorful filling inside. They are a staple in Asian cuisine, especially Chinese cooking, and make for a delicious appetizer or main dish when paired with dipping sauce.

Origin of the Recipe

Pot stickers, or “Guo Tie” (锅贴) in Chinese, originated from Northern China. Legend says they were created accidentally when a chef left dumplings on the stove for too long, causing them to stick to the pan and develop a crispy bottom. Instead of discarding them, he served them as a new dish, and they became an instant favorite!
