Pork Pot Stickers
Ingredients
½ lb.
Kowalski's Naturally Raised Ground Pork
1 ½ cups
finely chopped napa cabbage
1 tbsp.
water, cold
1 ½ tsp.
dry sherry
1 ½ tsp.
soy sauce
1 ½ tsp.
sesame oil
½ tsp.
kosher salt
24
round pot sticker wrappers (from the Produce Department)
2 tbsp.
canola oil, divided
1 cup
water
¼ cup (approx.)
Kalbi Dipping Sauce (recipe below)
Directions
- In a medium mixing bowl, mix together first 7 ingredients (through salt).
- Working one at a time, spoon approx. 2 tsp. filling into the middle of each pot sticker wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a fingertip dipped in water; fold pot sticker into a half-moon shape and pinch edges together tightly. Keep filled and formed dumplings covered with a damp towel while making the remainder.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tbsp. canola oil over medium-low heat. Arrange dumplings in the pan so they are just barely overlapping each other; cook until bottoms are light brown (about 10 min.).
- Increase heat to medium; add water. Cook, partially covered, until all liquid is evaporated (about 10 min.).
- Drizzle remaining canola oil around inside edge of pan; fry, uncovered, until bottoms are dark brown (about 3 min.).
- Using a spatula, loosen dumplings around the edge of the pan; invert onto a serving plate.
- Serve with Kalbi Dipping Sauce on the side.
