Steps to make Pork dumpling or Gyoza:
-
Make filling, to get rid of some water of cabbage leaves, after finely chopped them, sprinkle salt to dehydrate the cabbage, leave it for 10-15 min and squeeze the water out. Transfer to another bowl and tip the water out.
-
Cut green onions and shiitake mushrooms into small pieces.
-
Combine the ground meat, cabbage, green onion, and shiitake mushrooms in a large bowl.
-
Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the bowl.
-
Add the seasonings (1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp sake, and freshly ground black pepper).
-
Mix well and knead the mixture with hand until it all combined.
-
Take a wrapper and place it in the palm of your non-dominant hand. Use a teaspoon to take a small amount of filling and put it in the centre of the wrapper. Dip one finger in a bowl of water and draw a circle around the outer ¼” of the wrapper with your wet finger until it’s wet all around.
-
Folding Method (Toward Centre)
-
Fold the wrapper in half over the filling and pinch it in the centre with your fingers. Using your thumb and index finger, start making a pleat about once every half of inch to the top part of the wrapper from the centre toward the right. As you fold each pleat, press the folded pleat tightly against the back part of wrapper using your other thumb and index finger. Make 3-4 pleats.
-
Continue with the left side of the gyoza. Start making a pleat from the cent
-
Cook Gyoza: Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, place the gyoza in (I normally place it clockwise way, flat side down, in circular way.
-
Cook until the bottom of the gyoza turns golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add ¼ cup of water to the pan. Immediately cover with a lid and steam the gyoza for about 3 minutes or until most of the water evaporates. (At this stage you can add about 1 tbsp of corn flour in the water and mix well before pour water in, this will give an extra crisp around the corners of the dumpling)
-
Remove the lid to evaporate any remaining water. Add 1 tsp sesame oil around the frying pan. Cook uncovered until the gyoza is nice and crisp on the bottom.
-
Transfer to a plate and serve with dipping sauce. For the dipping sauce, combine the sauce ingredients in a small plate and mix all together.
