Easy Boiled Chicken Gyoza Dumplings
- 100 to 200 grams Ground chicken (dark meat)
- 1 stalk Japanese leek
- 1 Egg
- 2 tbsp Weipa
- 2 tbsp Hot water
- 1 Sesame seeds
- 1 packet Gyoza skins
- Dissolve the Weipa paste in the hot water.
- If you don't have any Weipa, use Chinese soup stock granules and a little soy sauce.
- Finely chop the leek: Make cuts along the length diagonally, on both sides.
- Slice, and you'll end up with very fine dice.
- The ground chicken I used is from the thigh; it's juicier than breast meat.
- If you only have ground white chicken, add a little sesame oil to make it juicier.
- Mix the ground chicken and the dissolved soup stock from step 1 until the mixture is sticky.
- Add the egg, leek and sesame seeds and mix well.
- It's OK if the mixture is very loose.
- Wrap the mixture in gyoza skins in any shape you like.
- Form any leftover mixture into meatballs.
- Bring a pan of water to a boil, and put in the meatballs first with a spoon.
- Put in the gyoza dumplings.
- When they come floating to the surface and the skins are transparent they are done.
- Eat with ponzu sauce.
- They're bouncy and juicy on the inside.
- You can cool the meatballs and freeze them for use later in hot pots and so on.
- This is a hamburger I made for my daughter with the meat mixture, panfried in a frying pan with cheese on top.
- You don't need any ketchup.
