Instructions
-
Start boiling salted water.
-
Blanch shredded cabbage in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp.
-
Submerge cabbage in ice water, then remove and thoroughly squeeze out excess water.
-
In a bowl, combine the blanched cabbage, ground pork, green onion, minced ginger, egg, soy sauce, chili oil, and sesame oil.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
