Gyoza (Pot stickers)

1/2 cup thinly chopped cabbage

2 TB chopped green onion

1/2 lb ground pork or I use ground turkey

1 tsp sesame oil

1 tsp sugar

2 tsp soy sauce

1/2 tsp garlic

1 tsp grated fresh ginger

25 round gyoza wrappers (produce department by tofu)

Mix all ingredients together.  Place 1 tsp of filling in center of gyoza wrapper.  Dip fingertip in water and run along edge of wrapper and make semicircle, gathering the front side of wrapper and sealing top.  Heat a small drop of oil in frying pan and place gyozas in pan and fry on high heat for 1 min until bottoms are brown.  Add 1/3 cup water in pan and cover pan with lid to steam gyoza-you don’t need to turn the gyoza over.

Dipping sauce

4 TB soy sauce

4 TB vinegar

1/2 tsp to 1 tsp hot peopper oil

1-2 TB Worcestershire sauce

1-2 tsp sugar to taste
