Pot Stickers

  Ingredients 

• 6-10 pieces dumplings
• Cooking Oil
• Frying pan

Directions 

The dumplings can be self made which I will leave it for another time when I figure out how to do it or you can simply buy it from stores that sell it in packets. Make sure to buy the ones with a thicker skin. I like to buy the ones with pork, mushroom and chives although there are many variance and definitely up to your palette.

1. Fill a small pot with water halfway and heat it to a boil. Add the dumplings and cook it completely. Once cooked, remove and allow the water to drain and the dumplings to cool a little.
2. In another medium size non stick frying pan, add about 2-3 tablespoons of cooking oil at medium to medium high heat. Add the dumplings flat face on the pan.
3. Allow it cook before moving it around so as to not tear the skin wrap when removing it. Once the flat face turns golden brown and looks slightly charred, removed and serve.

Dipping Sauce

• 4-5 tablespoon dark soy sauce
• 2-3 tablespoon light soy sauce
• 1 whole garlic chopped finely
• 1 stalk green onion chopped 
• Pinch of salt and a few dash of white pepper
• Red chilli paste

Fill above ingredients into a small bowl which should fill about 1/3 to 1/2 of it. Fill remaining bowl with hot water. Add more water if too salty.
