Homemade Dumpling Wrappers:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup hot water
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
Filling:
- 1 lb ground beef or minced pork
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp granulated cane sugar
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp garlic, minced (about 3 cloves)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup vegetable stock
- 5 spring onions, finely chopped
To Cook/Serve:
- Olive oil
- Scallions
- Chili crisp oil
- Soy sauce
Instructions
- Make the dumpling wrappers: In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Gradually add hot water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms. Knead until smooth and elastic. Cover and rest for 30 minutes.
- Prepare the filling: In a bowl, combine ground beef, soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, sugar, ginger, garlic, salt, vegetable stock, and spring onions. Mix until fully incorporated.
- Assemble potstickers: Roll dough into thin circles. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold and pleat edges to seal tightly.
- Cook potstickers: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place potstickers in the skillet and fry until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2–3 minutes. Add a few tablespoons of water, cover, and steam for 5–7 minutes until fully cooked.
- Serve: Garnish with sliced scallions and drizzle with chili crisp oil and soy sauce. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Ensure wrappers are thin but not too thin to prevent tearing during cooking.
- Do not overfill potstickers to maintain a good seal.
- Can freeze assembled potstickers before cooking for up to 2 months.
- Use vegetable or chicken stock as an alternative to enhance flavor.
