Pot Stickers

This recipe makes about 4 dozen. These dumplings are a yummy treat and worth the effort. If you're like me and don't really need 4 dozen at a time just go ahead and cook them up because they freeze quite nicely :-)

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. ground pork
• 1 1/2 cups chopped Napa cabbage
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1/4 cup Asian Sesame with Ginger Dressing, divided
• 1/4 cup soy sauce, divided
• 1 package won ton wrappers (about 4 dozen)
• 10 tsp. vegetable oil, divided
• 1 1/4 cups water, divided

Directions:

Mix pork, cabbage, onions, egg and 2 tablespoons of the dressing and 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce. Spoon the mixture evenly on to won ton wrappers.

Moisten edge of each wrapper with water; fold in half to form a triangle, pressing edges together to seal. Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in large skillet on medium-high heat.

Cook dumplings for 1 to 1-1/2 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown. (You will be cooking them in five batches) Gradually add 1/4 cup of the water and cover.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cook 2 to 2-1/2 minutes (water will evaporate).

Remove dumplings to serving plate; wipe skillet dry. Repeat with remaining dumplings.

Dipping Sauce:

Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons dressing, remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and remaining 1 tablespoon water. Serve as a dipping sauce with the dumplings.
