Ingredients
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 2 green onions, finely sliced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 8 ounce nappa cabbage, finely shredded
  • packet of wonton skins
  • peanut oil for frying
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, optional
Directions
  1. Shred the cabbage into thin strips, mix in a teaspoon of salt and set aside. After 5 minutes place a clean towel over the cabbage and squeeze out the excess moisture.
  2. In a large bowl mix the pork, cabbage, onions, sauces, garlic, egg and cornstarch together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Take a wonton wrapper and place 1 heaping teaspoon of filling in center. Moisten the edges by brushing a small amount of egg around half the wonton skin and press the non egg-brushed side of the wonton wrapper over to seal the dumpling together. You can seal them by crimping each edge over one another to get the restaurant-style effect or simply just seal them with a straight fold. They will taste just as good.
  4. Add 3 tablspoons of peanut(or vegetable) oil to a large skillet and sear the bottom of the dumplings. Do not over-crowd the pan, you should cook about 5 at a time.
  5. Remove from pan. Reserve broth in a separate bowl and repeat process until all pot stickers are cooked.
  6. In a small bowl mix the soy sauce and the sesame oil together. Serve in a small dipping sauce bowl sprinkled with sesame seeds.
