Instructions

  1. Start boiling salted water.

  2. Blanch shredded cabbage in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp.

  3. Submerge cabbage in ice water, then remove and thoroughly squeeze out excess water.

  4. In a bowl, combine the blanched cabbage, ground pork, green onion, minced ginger, egg, soy sauce, chili oil, and sesame oil.

  5. Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of a gyoza wrapper, wet the edges, fold into a semicircle, and pinch to seal; optionally create pleats. Repeat for all wrappers.

  6. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Cook 12 to 15 gyoza in a single layer for 2 minutes until golden brown on the bottom.

  7. Add 1/2 cup of water to the pan, cover, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the water is absorbed. Repeat with any remaining gyoza.
