Approx. 30 calories per potsticker (~7-10 potstickers should be 1 serving)

About This Dish:
Originally from China, gyozas are super easy to make and you can get as creative as you want in regards to the ingredients you put in. In Japan, we pan fry potstickers! The majority of Japanese people LOVE gyozas since it goes so well with beer. Of course, kids like it too. It goes so well with white rice! You'll find so many restaurants which specialize in making great gyozas in Japan, but it's a popular meal to make at home too. I've used ground chicken and shrimp to get this amazing chewiness and juiciness :D

What You Need:
(Makes around 30 gyozas)
  • 1/4 pound of ground chicken 
  • 20 little shrimps (I use the frozen ones)
  • Handful of chives (I got mine at Shaws)
  • A lot of shredded cabbage (Feel free to put in as much veggies as you want!)
  • 1 piece of ginger (I used chopped ginger)
  • 1 clove of garlic (I used minced garlic)
  • 1 tbsp of soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp of sake
  • 1 tbsp of sesame oil
  • Gyoza wrappers (I buy them at the asian store or Wholefoods)

Here are the ingredients!

3. Prepare for the wrapping session. Grab a bowl and put some water in it. The water will act as the glue when wrapping up the potstickers.

4.3 Once you're done with one side, repeat the folds on the other side.

Take the lid off after 5 minutes and you are done! Serve with rice and sauce (soy sauce + sesame oil). Regular super markets sell "gyoza sauce" too.

1. Place the ground meat, shrimp,chives, shredded cabbage into a bowl and mix! Make sure to squash the shrimp up into little pieces.

4. First place a spoonful of the mix on to the wrapper. Then dip your finger into the water and wet the edges of the wrapper.

5. Once you're done wrapping up all the gyozas, heat up the pan on HIGH heat and place 1 tbsp of oil. Once the oil and pan is hot hot hot, place the gyozas in rows.

2. We want the mix to be gooey. Now add the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sake and sesame oil. Mix further.

4.2 Close the wrapper from the middle and start making folds on one side like the photo above.

6. Right after you place the gyozas in the pan, pour in 1/2 glass of water. We want to cover up a little less than a third of the gyozas. Put a lid on it and wait for 5 minutes!
