Dumplings are cute little dimsum that are easy to make and budget friendly. Filling ingredients are flexible as you can play with any ingredients you have on hand. This is what I did with the recipe and it came out really really good that's why I am sharing you my recipe.

To be honest, I really don't know what's the difference between Dumplings, Gyoza or Potstickers. I think they are all the same. It's more from where the name came from because you will hear people say Chinese Dumplings, Japanese Gyoza and in America I hear Potstickers. If you know, please enlighten me on this one.

Wrapping is a little tricky and it takes practice but once you get the hang of it, it's actually easy. The photo above was wrapped manually of course by yours truly. So, how to wrap it...
​Wrap the meat mixture in gyoza wrapper by placing about 1 tbsp of mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water then fold the dough over the middle and pinch while folding sides with other thumb and index finger.

Using a dumpling press

I know I gave you too much information and it sounds hard.
But thanks to Dumpling Press. This little wonder made my wrapping fun and easy. Dumpling press can be bought in Walmart, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond or Amazon. Please see the Amazon link I provided on the right or below of this text. If you are located in the Philippines, you can purchase online via Lazada.
​To use the dumpling press, place the wrapper on the presser. Place filling in the middle. Rub the sides with water, then press.

PROCEDURE: 
  • Combine all the ingredients together except the wrapper.
  • Wrap the meat mixture in gyoza wrapper by placing about 1 tbsp of mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water then fold the dough over the middle and pinch while folding sides with other thumb and index finger.
  • If dumpling press is available, just place the wrapper on the center of the press. Add a small of filling, rub some water on the edgers then fold to press.
  • To cook, heat a small amount of cooking oil in a pan. 
  • Add the dumplings in a single layer and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until golden and crisp. 
  • Pour about 1/4 cup water and simmer until water is all gone.​
  • Remove from pan and serve.
  • This method of cooking will give you a dumpling that is crispy fried on the other side and soft on the other. Perfect! 
  • Another way of cooking is to steam for 20-25 minutes (if steaming, brush the steamer with some oil to avoid sticking). Remove from steamer and serve with dipping sauce.
  • Recipe yields about 30 dumplings.
