Dumpling Filling
Method
Preparing Gyoza
Make the Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, chopped cabbage, green onions, minced garlic, minced ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Prepare the Dumpling Wrappers
Take a gyoza wrapper and place about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center. Wet the edges of the wrapper with a little water, fold it in half, and pinch the edges to seal. You can create pleats along the edge for a decorative touch.
Cook the Gyoza
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil. Arrange the gyoza in the skillet and fry for about 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Add about 1/4 cup of water to the skillet, cover, and steam for about 5 minutes.
Serve
Once the water has evaporated and the gyoza are cooked through, remove the lid and allow them to fry for an additional 1-2 minutes for a crispier bottom. Serve hot with hot mustard on the side.
