Gyoza

Traditionally in Japan Gyoza are filled with a mix of finely minced pork, mushrooms and cabbage, which creates a delicious mix of flavours and textures. However, the possibilities are endless when it comes to creating your own Gyoza.

Ingredients

  • Cabbage- Chopped (2 cups)
  • Carrot - Chopped (.25 cup)
  • Egg (1 ea)
  • Garlic Clove- Chopped (1 ea)
  • Onion- Chopped (.25 cup)
  • Pork - Ground (8 oz)
  • Rice Vinegar (2 tbs)
  • Sesame Oil (1 tbs)
  • Soy Sauce (.25 cup)
  • Vegetable Oil (1 tbs)
  • Water (.25 cup)
  • Wonton Wrappers (20 pc)

Steps

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  2. Mix in cabbage, onion, garlic and carrot. Cook and stir until cabbage is limp.
  3. Mix in ground pork and egg. Cook until pork is evenly brown and egg is no longer runny.
  4. Preheat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  5. Place 1 tbs of the mixture in the center of each wrapper. Fold in half over filling, and seal edges.
  6. In the preheated vegetable oil, cook gyoza approximately 1 minute per side, until lightly browned.
  7. Place water into skillet and reduce heat. Cover and allow gyoza to steam until the water is gone.
  8. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce and rice vinegar. Use the mixture as a dipping sauce.

Notes

Can substitute meat for non-pork eaters. Ground Turkey works best.
