Dough Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while mixing with a fork until a dough forms.

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

Roll the Dough
After the dough has rested, divide it into small pieces (about 1 inch each). Roll each piece into a thin circle (about 3 inches in diameter).
- 5
Fill the Gyoza
Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of each dough circle. Moisten the edges with water, fold the dough over the filling, and pinch to seal tightly.
Cooking Gyoza
- 6
Pan-Fry the Gyoza
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Arrange the gyoza in a single layer and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Steam the Gyoza
Carefully add water to the skillet (it will sizzle). Cover immediately and let steam for about 5-7 minutes until the water has evaporated and the gyoza are cooked through.
- 8
Serve
Remove the lid and let the gyoza cook for an additional minute to crisp up the bottoms. Serve hot with dipping sauce.
