Dumplings: Easy-Fold Method


  • Author: kyriethefoodie
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Description

Easy-fold gyoza wrapped like a burrito with a quick tuck-and-roll method. Pan-fried to golden perfection, delivering a satisfying crunch on the outside and a savory, juicy burst of filling.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 4 leaves napa cabbage, thinly chopped
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp black pepper
  • Dumpling wrappers (30-35)
  • Plastic wrap

Instructions

  1. To a large gallon-sized Ziploc bag, add all of the filling ingredients (everything except for the dumpling wrappers) and zip the bag. Knead and mash the ingredients with your hands.
  2. Roll out a piece of plastic wrap about 1.5 ft long and lay on a clean, flat surface. Place the dumpling wrappers on top in a straight line.
  3. Cut a hole about 1-inch in size on the bottom corner of the Ziploc bag.
  4. Begin piping the filling onto the wrappers by starting on one end and going down the line of wrappers to the other end.
  5. Take one side of the plastic wrap (parallel to the filling) and fold, in order to fold all of the wrappers at once. Repeat on the other side.
  6. Place your dumplings on a plate and repeat until you run out of wrappers.
  7. To a well-oiled large pan over medium-heat, line up your dumplings. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until cooked all the way through. Increase the heat and continue to cook (about 2 minutes) until the bottom of the gyoza is brown and crispy.
  8. Pour in about 1/2 cup of water and place a lid on top of the pan. Increase the heat to high and cook until the water is evaporated (about 2-3 minutes).
