Chicken Celery Pot-stickers (Japanese Gyoza)
- 1 lb (450 g) ground chicken
- 1 stalk celery (minced)
- 5 leaves cabbage (minced)
- 1 Tbsp fresh ginger (minced)
- 2/3 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 100 gyoza wraps
- 1/2 cup (120 cc) soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp vinegar
- 2/3 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp fresh ginger (finely grated)
- 6 green onions (thinly sliced)
- Wash cabbage and celery, dry and mince.
- Dry them well or it will make gyozas stick together and soggy.
- Scrape ginger skin, and mince.
- In a medium bowl, mix meat, cabbage, celery, ginger, worcestershire sauce and salt.
- Mix well until sticky.
- Put the mix (about 1/2 tbsp) on a wrap then smear some water around the wrap with your finger.
- Fold the wrap in half and pinch the edges.
- If you make 4~5 tucks, it seems more pro made.
- I used these small round wraps but you can also use square wonton wraps.
- Heat oil and put your gyozas in a frying pan on medium low heat.
- When one side becomes lightly brown, add 1/4 cup (60cc) hot water and steam fry with lid on.
- While your gyozas are cooking, mix all the ingredients together for your dipping sauce.
- While mixing together your ingredients for the sauce, listen carefully to the frying pan.
- When it starts to make a popping sound, open the lid and add a little bit of sesame oil or the oil of your choice (I like to use coconut oil).
- Cook until the bottoms are crispy.
- When all the water is gone and they are crispy on the bottom, serve on a plate with a small bowl of your dipping sauce.
- You can freeze before frying, and start from step 5 with frozen gyozas later.
- (You dont need to thaw!)
