Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Flour and Water

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while stirring until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

  3. 3

    Rest the Dough

    Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large bowl, mix together the ground pork, chopped cabbage, green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Roll the Dough

    Divide the rested dough into small pieces and roll each piece into a thin circle (about 3 inches in diameter).

  2. 6

    Fill and Seal Gyoza

    Place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of each dough circle. Wet the edges of the dough with water, fold over and pinch to seal tightly.

Cooking

  1. 7

    Pan-Fry Gyoza

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Place the gyoza in the skillet, flat side down, and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

  2. 8

    Steam Gyoza

    Add water to the skillet, cover immediately, and let the gyoza steam for about 5 minutes until the water has evaporated.

  3. 9

    Crisp the Bottom

    Remove the lid and continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until the bottoms are crispy again.
