Sweet Potato Pot Stickers Recipes

SWEET POTATO POT STICKERS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of one wrapper. (Until ready to use, keep remaining wrappers covered with a damp paper towel to prevent them from drying out.) , Moisten entire edge with water. Fold wrapper over filling to form a semicircle. Press edges firmly to seal, pleating the front side to form three to five folds. Holding sealed edges, stand each dumpling on an even surface; press to flatten bottom. Curve ends to form a crescent shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling., In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. In batches, arrange pot stickers flat side down in pan; cook for 1-2 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned., Add 1/2 cup broth; bring to a simmer.

Repeat with remaining oil and pot stickers. Serve with dipping sauce.

POT STICKERS WITH SWEET SOY DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. In small bowl, mix pork, onions and gingerroot.
• Working with 1 wonton skin at a time, place 1 heaping teaspoon pork mixture on center of each wonton skin. Moisten edges of wonton skin with water; fold in half over filling to form triangle and seal sides. Bring 2 ends together to form a "hat" shape (see photo). Place pot stickers on cookie sheet; cover with damp towel to keep from drying out.
• In Dutch oven, heat 3 quarts water to boiling. Add half of the pot stickers; boil about 5 minutes or until edges of wonton skins are clear. Using slotted spoon, remove pot stickers from water; drain thoroughly on paper towels. Repeat with remaining pot stickers.

PERFECT POT STICKERS

Steps:

• Place ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, 2 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon soy sauce, sesame oil, and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Top with chopped green cabbage. Mix with fork until thoroughly combined. Tamp down lightly; cover with plastic. Refrigerate until chilled, about an hour.
• Place flour and kosher salt in a mixing bowl. Slowly pour in hot water. Stir with a wooden spoon until mixture forms a shaggy dough. Flour your hands and transfer dough to a work surface. Knead dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. If dough seems too sticky, sprinkle with a bit more flour, about 3 to 5 minutes. Wrap dough ball in plastic, and let it rest about 30 minutes.
• When dough has rested, divide into 4 equal pieces. Cover 3 pieces with a dish cloth while you work the first piece. Roll into a small log about the thickness of a thumb, about 3/4 inch. Divide each log into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin 3 1/2-inch circle on a lightly floured surface to form the pot sticker wrappers. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
• Lightly moisten the edges of a wrapper with your wet finger. Place a small scoop of the ground pork mixture onto the center of a wrapper. Fold up the 2 sides and pinch together in the center. Pinch together the remaining edges, forming "pleats" along one side. Tap the pot sticker on the work surface to slightly flatten the bottom; form a slight curve in it so it stands upright in the pan. Transfer to a well-floured plate. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Mix together seasoned rice vinegar and soy sauce in a small mixing bowl for the dipping sauce.
• Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Place about 6 or 7 pot stickers in the hot oil, flat side down. Cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drizzle in water and quickly cover the pan; steam for 3 minutes. Uncover; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until water evaporates and bottoms are browned and crunchy, 1 or 2 minutes. Transfer to a warm serving dish. Repeat with remaining pot stickers. Serve with dipping sauce.

POT STICKERS TRADITIONAL

Steps:

• Crumble pork into a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the pork, cabbage, green onion, ginger, water chestnuts, salt, sugar and sesame oil. Chill in the refrigerator 6 to 8 hours, or overnight.
• Place a tablespoon of the pork mixture into each of the wonton wrappers. Fold the wrappers, and seal the edges with a moistened fork.
• In a large, deep skillet, heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium high heat. Place the pot stickers into the oil seam sides up. Heat 30 seconds to a minute. Pour water into the skillet. Gently boil 7 to 8 minutes, until oil and water begins to sizzle, then add remaining oil. When the bottoms begin to brown, remove pot stickers from heat.
• In a small serving bowl, mix together the chili oil, soy sauce, and vinegar, adjusting proportions to taste.

CHEESESTEAK POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper. Add the oil to a wok or a large cast-iron or saute pan over high heat. Once heated, add the seasoned beef and sear, stirring quickly, until cooked through, about 2 minutes, then remove from the wok and set aside. In the same pan, add the onions, garlic and ginger over medium heat and cook until caramelized, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the hot onions to the cooked beef. Taste for seasoning, adjusting if needed. Store in the fridge to cool, at least 20 minutes or up to 1 hour. Fold in the cheese prior to making dumplings.
• To form potstickers, line a sheet tray with parchment paper and set aside. Lay out a dumpling wrapper on your work surface. Using your finger or a pastry brush, wipe water around the top edge of the wrapper. Spoon about 1/2 tablespoon filling in the center. (Make sure not to get filling on the edges of the wrapper, which prevents proper sealing.) Fold the wrapper in half to form a half-moon shape. Seal the top center by pressing between fingers and starting at the center, then making three pleats, working toward the bottom right corner. Repeat, working toward the bottom left corner. Press the dumpling gently on a work surface to flatten the bottom. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Hold the dumplings on the lined sheet tray.
• Heat a large saute pan over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil and swirl to coat. When the oil shimmers, add the potstickers, flat-side down, in 2 snug rows of 5 and cook, in batches, without disturbing, until the bottoms have browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Add about 1/2 cup water and immediately cover the pan to avoid splattering. Lift the cover and make sure about 1/8 inch water remains; if not, add a bit more. Steam until the potstickers are puffy, yet firm, and the water has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. If the water evaporates before the potstickers are done, add more in 2- to 3-tablespoon increments. If the potstickers seem done but water remains, drain the water and return the pan to the stovetop. Continue to cook over high heat to allow the potstickers to re-crisp on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a platter and serve hot with Dijon mustard.

STRAWBERRY POT STICKERS

Steps:

• Place chocolate in a small bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream and butter just to a boil. Pour over chocolate; whisk until smooth. Stir in vanilla and cinnamon. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally., For pot stickers, in a small bowl, toss strawberries and chopped chocolate with brown sugar and cinnamon. Place 1 tablespoon mixture in center of one gyoza wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.), Moisten wrapper edge with egg. Fold wrapper over filling; seal edges, pleating the front side several times to form a pleated pouch. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling. Stand pot stickers on a work surface to flatten bottoms; curve slightly to form crescent shapes, if desired., In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Arrange half of the pot stickers, flat side down, in concentric circles in pan; cook 1-2 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown. Add 1/4 cup water; bring to a simmer.
